> Changes since v1:

>    used when requesting the module to reduce duplication, and don't
>    bother returning strings for lwt modules using netdevices, both
>    suggested by Jiri.
>  - update commit message of first patch to clarify security
>    implications, in response to Eric's comments.

Series applied, thanks.
