Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the modules tree with the mm tree

From: Stephen Rothwell <[email-masked]>

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the modules tree got a conflict in:

  kernel/module/main.c

between commits:

  7f014cdda4cb ("lib: code tagging module support")
  5ab9b0c7ea5c ("lib: prevent module unloading if memory is not freed")

from the mm-unstable branch of the mm tree and commits:

  0746f9982603 ("module: make module_memory_{alloc,free} more self-contained")
  18da532eefc8 ("mm/execmem, arch: convert remaining overrides of module_alloc to execmem")

from the modules tree.

I fixed it up (I think, see below) and can carry the fix as
necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any
non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer
when your tree is submitted for merging.  You may also want to consider
cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any
particularly complex conflicts.

Cheers,
Stephen Rothwell
