strsep() is neither standard C nor POSIX and used outside the kernel code here. Using it here requires that the build host supports it out of the box which is e.g. not true for a Darwin build host and using a cross-compiler. This leads to: scripts/mod/modpost.c:145:2: warning: implicit declaration of function 'strsep' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration] return strsep(stringp, "\n"); ^ and a segfault when running MODPOST. See also: https://stackoverflow.com/a/7219504 So let's replace this by strchr() instead of using strsep(). It does not hurt kernel size or speed since this code is run on the build host.
