[PATCH 07/24] kbuild, bus: arm-integrator-lm: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules

[PATCH 07/24] kbuild, bus: arm-integrator-lm: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules

[Nick Alcock]

Since commit 8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations
are used to identify modules. As a consequence, uses of the macro
in non-modules will cause modprobe to misidentify their containing
object file as a module when it is not (false positives), and modprobe
might succeed rather than failing with a suitable error message.

So remove it in the files in this commit, none of which can be built as
modules.

I think you need to base your tree-wide patches on next. The driver was

No, this should be fine, either force remove all MODULE_* macros from
built-in code, or none.

Should I apply it as a fix for 6.3-rc with Cc stable tag, or can it be
a material for -next?

This is currently built against -next, but Luis has indicated an intent
to pull the lot in via -rc3 (hence my scrambling to get the series
polished up for him, tags attached etc now). So, er... yes? :)

These are not stable critical patches.

Those patches which don't get this simply can't benefit from future
tooling enhancements which Nick is working on which will leverage
correct mapping.

So yes, my goal is to pull up straggler patches except where some
maintainer explicitly don't want them. For instance, I will not be
taking in the patches for trees that Greg KH maintains as he would
prefer an alternative, but yet hasn't recommended an alternative
strategy to help with Nick's work.
