modpost: Ignore relaxation and alignment marker relocs on LoongArch
With recent trunk versions of binutils and gcc, alignment directives are represented with R_LARCH_ALIGN relocs on LoongArch, which is necessary for the linker to maintain alignment requirements during its relaxation passes. And even though the kernel is built with relaxation disabled, so far a small number of R_LARCH_RELAX marker relocs are still emitted as part of la.* pseudo instructions in assembly. These two kinds of relocs do not refer to symbols, which can trip up modpost's section mismatch checks, because the r_offset of said relocs can be zero or any other meaningless value, eventually leading to a `from == NULL` condition in default_mismatch_handler and SIGSEGV. As the two kinds of relocs are not concerned with symbols, just ignore them for section mismatch check purposes.
