This series improves nsdeps more by addressing the root problem. Based on linux-next. This series does NOT apply to the Linus tree because I updates modpost from my Kbuild tree. I can pick up this series to kbuild tree if there is no objection. If it goes to the module tree, we need to discuss how to deal with the conflicts.
Please feel free to take these through the kbuild tree. Thanks!
The modpost is actively touched these days from both kbuild and module trees.
