Etienne Dechamps 705741827a When checking for symbol exports, try compiling.
This patch adds a new autoconf function: ZFS_LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_SYMBOL.
This new function does the following:

 - Call LINUX_TRY_COMPILE with the specified parameters.
 - If unsuccessful, return false.
 - If successful and we're configuring with --enable-linux-builtin,
   return true.
 - Else, call CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT with the specified parameters and
   return the result.

All calls to CHECK_SYMBOL_EXPORT are converted to
LINUX_TRY_COMPILE_SYMBOL so that the tests work even when configuring
for builtin on a kernel which doesn't have loadable module support, or
hasn't been built yet.
