    -tip testing found that this patch breaks the build on x86 if
    CONFIG_KALLSYMS is disabled:
    
     kernel/module.c: In function ‘load_module’:
     kernel/module.c:2367: error: ‘struct module’ has no member named ‘sect_attrs’
     distcc[8269] ERROR: compile kernel/module.c on ph/32 failed
     make[1]: *** [kernel/module.o] Error 1
     make: *** [kernel] Error 2
     make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
    
    Commit 1b364bf4 misses the fact that section attributes are only
    built and dealt with if kallsyms is enabled. The patch below fixes
    this.
    
    ( note, technically speaking this should depend on CONFIG_SYSFS as
      well but this patch is correct too and keeps the #ifdef less
      intrusive - in the KALLSYMS && !SYSFS case the code is a NOP. )
