The printing of section addresses in /sys/module/*/sections/* was not
using the correct credentials to evaluate visibility.
Before:
 # cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text
 0xffffffffc0458000
 ...
 # capsh --drop=CAP_SYSLOG -- -c "cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text"
 0xffffffffc0458000
 ...
After:
 # cat /sys/module/*/sections/*.text
 0xffffffffc0458000
 ...
 # capsh --drop=CAP_SYSLOG -- -c "cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text"
 0x0000000000000000
 ...
Additionally replaces the existing (safe) /proc/modules check with
file->f_cred for consistency.
