[RFC 12/12] module: use aliases to find module on find_module_all()

[Luis Chamberlain]

Modules can have a series of aliases, but we don't currently use
them to check if a module is already loaded. Part of this is because
load_module() will stick to checking for already loaded modules using
the actual module name, not an alias. Its however desriable to also
check for aliases on find_module_all() for existing callers and future
callers. The curent gain to using aliases on find_module_all() will
simply be to be able to support unloading modules using the alias using
the delete_module() syscall.

You can debug this with dynamic debug:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="dyndbg=\"func module_process_aliases +p; func module_name_match +p; \" "
