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
