Merge tag 'modules-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux
Pull module update from Rusty Russell:
"Nothing major: support for compressing modules, and auto-tainting
params.
PS. My virtio-next tree is empty: DaveM took the patches I had. There
might be a virtio-rng starvation fix, but so far it's a bit voodoo
so I will get to that in the next two days or it will wait"
* tag 'modules-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux:
moduleparam: Resolve missing-field-initializer warning
kbuild: handle module compression while running 'make modules_install'.
modinst: wrap long lines in order to enhance cmd_modules_install
modsign: lookup lines ending in .ko in .mod files
modpost: simplify file name generation of *.mod.c files
modpost: reduce visibility of symbols and constify r/o arrays
param: check for tainting before calling set op.
drm/i915: taint the kernel if unsafe module parameters are set
module: add module_param_unsafe and module_param_named_unsafe
module: make it possible to have unsafe, tainting module params
module: rename KERNEL_PARAM_FL_NOARG to avoid confusion

+
+ This option provides little benefit when the modules are to be used inside
+ an initrd or initramfs, it generally is more efficient to compress the whole
+ initrd or initramfs instead.
