modpost: drop '*_probe' from section check whitelist
Several symbol patterns used to be whitelisted to allow drivers to refer
to functions annotated with __devinit and __devexit, which have since
been removed.
Commit e1dc1bfe5b27 ("modpost: remove more symbol patterns from the
section check whitelist") removed most of these patterns but left
'*_probe' after a reported warning in an irqchip driver.
Turns out that was indeed an incorrect reference which has now been
fixed by commit 9b685058ca93 ("irqchip/qcom-irq-combiner: Fix section
mismatch").
A recently added clocksource driver also relies on this suffix to
suppress another valid warning, and that is being fixed separately. [1]
Note that drivers with valid reasons for suppressing the warnings can
use the __ref macros.
