My preference would be to just add the missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() with this
patch since that fixes the existing warning. Removing an existing macro
invocation is out of scope for what I'm trying to accomplish.

Out of almost 300 patches treewide that add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION()
macros, this is one of 13 that is still pending for the 6.11 merge window.
