Subject: crypto: arm/xor - add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macro
Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2024 07:43:18 -0700
Patch series "treewide: add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macros".
Since commit 1fffe7a34c89 ("script: modpost: emit a warning when the
description is missing"), a module without a MODULE_DESCRIPTION() will
result in a warning when built with make W=1.
Recently, multiple developers have been eradicating these warnings
treewide, and I personally submitted almost 300 patches over the past few
months. Almost all of my patches landed by 6.11-rc1, either by being
merged in a 6.10-rc or by being merged in the 6.11 merge window. However,
a few of my patches did not land.
This patch (of 5):
With ARCH=arm and CONFIG_KERNEL_MODE_NEON=y, make W=1 C=1 reports:
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in arch/arm/lib/xor-neon.o
Add the missing invocation of the MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macro.
