[PATCH] tracing: fix build without CONFIG_MODULES

[PATCH] tracing: fix build without CONFIG_MODULES

[Arnd Bergmann]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The tracing code fails to build when CONFIG_MODULES is disabled:

kernel/trace/trace.c: In function 'save_mod':
kernel/trace/trace.c:6041:45: error: invalid use of undefined type 'struct module'
 6041 |         entry->mod_addr = (unsigned long)mod->mem[MOD_TEXT].base;
      |                                             ^~

The problem here is that 'struct module' is not defined in this configuration.

Enclose the functions in another #ifdef, just like other parts of this file
already are.

Fixes: dca91c1c5468 ("tracing: Have persistent trace instances save module addresses")

Thanks, but Masami already sent one fix where I commented on and he
then sent an update:

and the update:
