From: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>
Subject: modpost: filter out "built-in" depends
References: bnc#450085

In the binary spec files, we "annotate" the Module.symvers file with
information where particular vmlinux exports come from. This annotation
confuses modpost when building external modules. This patch makes modpost
treat "built-in" exports as vmlinux exports, so that these don't show up
in modules' depends: fields.
