package/pkg-kernel-module: disable CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS

The kernel option CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y allows to trim unused
kernel symbols... which basically prevents building external
modules. This option has been enabled in the default MIPS architecture
kernel defconfig since pretty much forever, and it causes build
failures of all our external modules on MIPS in the autobuilders.

To fix this in a global manner, we handle the problem in the
kernel-module infrastructure, by appending to the
<pkg>_LINUX_CONFIG_FIXUPS variable provided by the package.

Fixes:
