[PATCH 3/3] kernel/module.c: Update debug alignment after symtable generation

When CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX is enabled, the sizes of
module sections are aligned up so appropriate permissions can
be applied. Adjusting for the symbol table may cause them to
become unaligned. Make sure to re-align the sizes afterward.
