6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 9185afeac2a3dcce8300a5684291a43c2838cfd6 ]

Building with W=1 incorrectly emits the following warning:

  WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in vmlinux.o

This check should apply only to modules.

Fixes: 1fffe7a34c89 ("script: modpost: emit a warning when the description is missing")
