modpost: fix inverted logic in is_extable_fault_address().
As Guenter pointed out, we want to assert that extable_entry_size has been discovered and not the other way around. Moreover, this sanity check is only valid when we're not dealing with the first relocation in __ex_table, since we have not discovered the extable entry size at that point. This was leading to a divide-by-zero on some architectures and make the build fail.
