Loading of modules with unresolved weak symbols fails on MIPS
since '88173507e4fc1e7ecd111b0565e8cba0cb7dae6d'.
Modules: handle symbols that have a zero value
The module subsystem cannot handle symbols that are zero. If symbols
are present that have a zero value then the module resolver prints out a
message that these symbols are unresolved.
We have to use IS_ERR_VALUE() to check that a symbol has been resolved
or not.
