From a5dd69707424a35d2d2cc094e870f595ad61e916 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Fri, 9 May 2008 16:24:21 +1000 Subject: module: be more picky about allowing missing module versions We allow missing __versions sections, because modprobe --force strips it. It makes less sense to allow sections where there's no version for a specific symbol the module uses, so disallow that.
