Merge tag 'modules-for-v5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux
Pull module updates from Jessica Yu: - Retire EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE(). These export types were introduced between 2006 - 2008. All the of the unused symbols have been long removed and gpl future symbols were converted to gpl quite a long time ago, and I don't believe these export types have been used ever since. So, I think it should be safe to retire those export types now (Christoph Hellwig) - Refactor and clean up some aged code cruft in the module loader (Christoph Hellwig) - Build {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol only when livepatching is enabled, as it is the only caller (Christoph Hellwig) - Unexport find_module() and module_mutex and fix the last module callers to not rely on these anymore. Make module_mutex internal to the module loader (Christoph Hellwig) - Harden ELF checks on module load and validate ELF structures before checking the module signature (Frank van der Linden) - Fix undefined symbol warning for clang (Fangrui Song) - Fix smatch warning (Dan Carpenter) * tag 'modules-for-v5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux: module: potential uninitialized return in module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol() module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL* module: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE module: move struct symsearch to module.c module: pass struct find_symbol_args to find_symbol module: merge each_symbol_section into find_symbol module: remove each_symbol_in_section module: mark module_mutex static kallsyms: only build {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol when required kallsyms: refactor {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol module: use RCU to synchronize find_module module: unexport find_module and module_mutex drm: remove drm_fb_helper_modinit powerpc/powernv: remove get_cxl_module module: harden ELF info handling module: Ignore _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ when warning for undefined symbols
