Merge tag 'modules-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux

Pull module updates from Rusty Russell:
 "Mainly boring here, too.  rmmod --wait finally removed, though"

* tag 'modules-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux:
  modpost: fix bogus 'exported twice' warnings.
  init: fix in-place parameter modification regression
  asmlinkage, module: Make ksymtab and kcrctab symbols and __this_module __visible
  kernel: add support for init_array constructors
  modpost: Optionally ignore secondary errors seen if a single module build fails
  module: remove rmmod --wait option.
