modpost: remove more symbol patterns from the section check whitelist

Browse source 
These symbol patterns were whitelisted to allow them to reference to
functions with the old __devinit and __devexit annotations.

We stopped doing this a long time ago, for example, commit 6f03979051
("Drivers: scsi: remove __dev* attributes.") remove those annotations
from the scsi drivers.

Keep *_ops, *_probe, and *_console, otherwise they will really cause
section mismatch warnings.
