Current diagnostics are rather poor when things go wrong:
  ipv6: relocation out of range, section 2 reloc 0 sym 'snmp_mib_free'

Let's include a little more information about the problem:
  ipv6: section 2 reloc 0 sym 'snmp_mib_free': relocation 28 out of range (0xbf0000a4 -> 0xc11b4858)

so that we show exactly what the problem is - not only what type of
relocation but also the offending address range too.
