module: Use binary search in lookup_symbol()
The function is_exported() with its helper function lookup_symbol() are used to
verify if a provided symbol is effectively exported by the kernel or by the
modules. Now that both have their symbols sorted we can replace a linear search
with a binary search which provide a considerably speed-up.
This work was supported by a hardware donation from the CE Linux Forum.
