SubjectRe: [PATCH] modpost: support arbitrary symbol length in modversion

although not really exported as uapi, this will break userspace as this is
used in the elf file generated for the modules. I think
this change must be made in a backward compatible way and kmod updated
to deal with the variable name length:

kmod $ git grep "\[64"
libkmod/libkmod-elf.c: char name[64 - sizeof(uint32_t)];
libkmod/libkmod-elf.c: char name[64 - sizeof(uint64_t)];

in kmod we have both 32 and 64 because a 64-bit kmod can read both 32
and 64 bit module, and vice versa.
