* modprobe -a bug fixes by Yuuki Harano <masm@sa.uno.ne.jp>.
* Add EXTRA_DEFS to Makefiles for distributions.
* Add test for NO_WARN_ON_OLD_LINK for distributions that do not want
warnings in 2.3.x.
* ARM patch from Philip Blundell <philb@gnu.org>.
* Remove malloc overwrite when modules do not reference __this_module.
That last one is important for recent 2.3 kernels. It is a long
standing bug in modutils but it only trips on modules that do not use
MOD_INC_USE_COUNT, MOD_DEC_USE_COUNT or MOD_IN_USE. ALSA and kernel
pcmcia both hit this bug, causing random problems when loading modules.
