module: Use RCU in find_module_all().

Browse Source 
The modules list and module::kallsyms can be accessed under RCU
assumption.

Remove module_assert_mutex_or_preempt() from find_module_all() so it can
be used under RCU protection without warnings. Update its callers to use
RCU protection instead of preempt_disable().
