Re: [PATCH v5 14/16] modules: Support extended MODVERSIONS info

[Matthew Maurer]

So, the basic things I can think of to test here are:

1. The kernel can still load the previous MODVERSIONS format
2. The kernel can load the new MODVERSIONS format
3. If we artificially tweak a CRC in the previous format, it will fail to load.
4. If we artificially tweak a CRC in the new format, it will fail to load.
5. With CONFIG_EXTENDED_MODVERSIONS enabled, the kernel will build and
load modules with long symbol names, with MODVERSIONS enabled.

Is there anything else you were thinking of here, or are those the
kinds of checks you were envisioning?
