I was hit by some problems caused by the module namespace feature that was merged recently. At least, the breakage of external module builds is a fatal one. I just took a look at the code closer, and I noticed some more issues (some are nit-picking). V2: - I dropped "module: avoid code duplication in include/linux/export.h" because Matthias offered to refactor the code by himself. - V1 missed the problem when a symbol is preloaded before sym_add_exported() is called. I fixed it too.
