module.h: Annotate mod_kallsyms with __rcu (2020-01-23 18:19:48 +0100)
---------------------------------------------------------------- Modules updates for v5.6
Summary of modules changes for the 5.6 merge window:
- Add "MS" (SHF_MERGE|SHF_STRINGS) section flags to __ksymtab_strings to indicate to the linker that it can perform string deduplication (i.e., duplicate strings are reduced to a single copy in the string table). This means any repeated namespace string would be merged to just one entry in __ksymtab_strings.
- Various code cleanups and small fixes (fix small memleak in error path, improve moduleparam docs, silence rcu warnings, improve error logging)
