modules: fix longstanding /proc/kallsyms vs module insertion race. (2016-02-03 16:58:15 +1030)
---------------------------------------------------------------- Fix for async_probe module param added in 4.3 (clearly not widely used yet), and a much more interesting kallsyms race which has been around approximately forever. This fix is more invasive, and will require some care in backporting, but I hated all the bandaids I could think of, so...
There are some more coming, which are only for breakages introduced this cycle (livepatch), but wanted these in now.
Thanks, Rusty.
---------------------------------------------------------------- Luis R. Rodriguez (1): modules: fix modparam async_probe request
Rusty Russell (2): module: wrapper for symbol name. modules: fix longstanding /proc/kallsyms vs module insertion race.
