Modules updates for v5.5
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.
