modules: de-mutex more symbol lookup paths in the module code

Kyle McMartin reports sysrq_timer_list_show() can hit the module mutex
from hard interrupt context.  These paths don't need to though, since we
long ago changed all the module list manipulation to occur via
stop_machine().

Disabling preemption is enough.
