[PATCH 4/4 F][SRU][L-R-M] UBUNTU: update-version -- copy arch/powerpc/kernel/module.lds

[Alberto Milone]

The copy was meant to get the build (or the linking) to succeed in the
kernel. The thing that we do with update-version in the l-r-m is to help
when building the nvidia modules again for the l-r-m.
