There is no __insmod_modname_S symbol for __archdata.  Use
  insmod -nm -O blob ./r128.o
so insmod writes the binary object to blob.  Because it also uses -n,
the address starts at an arbitrary 0x12340000.  Get the address of
__archdata from the start of the map, and
  objdump -b binary -s --adjust-vma=0x12340000 --start-addr=0x1234xxxx blob
0x1234xxxx is the start address of __archdata.  Alas if __archdata is
all zeroes, objdump dumps nothing, you might have to use a lower start
address to see an all zero section.  However __archdata should not be
zeroes, if it exists.
