  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)
