Merge tag 'modules-for-v5.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeyu/linux
Pull modules updates from Jessica Yu:
"Summary of modules changes for the 5.5 merge window:
- Refactor include/linux/export.h and remove code duplication between
EXPORT_SYMBOL and EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS to make it more readable.
The most notable change is that no namespace is represented by an
empty string "" rather than NULL.
- Fix a module load/unload race where waiter(s) trying to load the
same module weren't being woken up when a module finally goes away"
