Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Remove obsolete __MODULE_STRING()
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 15:32:20 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260922-module-string-v1-0-c18766690185@suse.com> (raw)
__MODULE_STRING() has been an alias for __stringify() since "[PATCH]
MODULE_PARM support for older modules" [1] in 2002-12. That change also
moved it to the graveyard section at the end of linux/module.h
Replace the remaining uses of __MODULE_STRING() with __stringify() and
remove the macro.
Apologies for the wide distribution. Acked-bys are appreciated.
