From: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 28438794aba47a27e922857d27b31b74e8559143 upstream. Since commit f02e8a6596b7 ("module: Sort exported symbols"), EXPORT_SYMBOL* is placed in the individual section ___ksymtab(_gpl)+<sym> (3 leading underscores instead of 2). Since then, modpost cannot detect the bad combination of EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init/__exit. Fix the .fromsec field.
