V2: rebase on module-next.


Masahiro Yamada (3):
  module: do not pass opaque pointer for symbol search
  module: do not binary-search in __ksymtab_gpl if fsa->gplok is false
  module: merge check_exported_symbol() into
    find_exported_symbol_in_section()

There is no need to use an opaque pointer for check_exported_symbol()
or find_exported_symbol_in_section.

Pass (struct find_symbol_arg *) explicitly.

Currently, !fsa->gplok && syms->license == GPL_ONLY) is checked after
bsearch() succeeds.

It is meaningless to do the binary search in the GPL symbol table when
fsa->gplok is false because we know find_exported_symbol_in_section()
will fail anyway.

This check should be done before bsearch().

Now check_exported_symbol() always succeeds.

Merge it into find_exported_symbol_in_search() to make the code concise.

Thanks! Pushed onto modules-testing, if there are no issues reported
I'll move to modules-next.
