Casey Chen 7e43195c60 alloc_tag: remove empty module tag section ...

The empty MOD_CODETAG_SECTIONS() macro added an incomplete .data section
in module linker script, which caused symbol lookup tools like gdb to
misinterpret symbol addresses e.g., __ib_process_cq incorrectly mapping to
unrelated functions like below.

  (gdb) disas __ib_process_cq
  Dump of assembler code for function trace_event_fields_cq_schedule:

Removing the empty section restores proper symbol resolution and layout,
ensuring .data placement behaves as expected.
