    loongarch: kernel: strip modules
    
    Well, I don't think this is the correct solution (IMO the loader should
    just ignore debug sections) and I cannot reproduce it at all on all
    other architectures.  But maybe it's simply because the debug symbol is
    too large on LoongArch.
    
    Make it "at least work" anyway.
