[PATCH] efi_runtime: enable KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN=y to workaround build failures

[Alex Hung]

Hi Colin,

Is this to solve the previous ADT issue from "[V3] efi_runtime: remove
efi_runtime dkms" (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1136754/)?

I applied both patches and run ADT test by "sudo autopkgtest
./fwts_${RELEASE_VERSION}-0ubuntu1.dsc -- null" ($RELEASE_VERSION =
19.07.01 which is a test build), it doesn't return success. Is this
intentional?
