    [SPARC64]: Fix inconsistent .section usage in lib/
    
    A few places missed the "a" specifier for the __ex_table section. Add
    these so we avoid generation an additional section at link time.
    
    Latest modpost would otherwise complain like this:
    
    WARNING: vmlinux.o (__ex_table.2): section name inconsistency.
    (.[number]+) following section name.
    Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file?
    Note that for example <linux/init.h> contains
    section definitions for use in .S files.
    WARNING: vmlinux.o (__ex_table.4): section name inconsistency.
    (.[number]+) following section name.
    Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file?
    Note that for example <linux/init.h> contains
    section definitions for use in .S files.
