Pull modules updates from Luis Chamberlain: "The only thing worth highligthing is that gzip moves to use vmalloc() instead of kmalloc just as we had a fix for this for zstd on v6.6-rc1. The rest is regular house keeping, keeping things neat, tidy, and boring" [ The kmalloc -> vmalloc conversion is not the right approach. Unless you know you need huge areas or know you need to use virtual mappings for some reason (playing with protection bits or whatever), you should use kvmalloc()/kvfree, which automatically picks the right allocation model - Linus ] * tag 'modules-6.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux: module: Annotate struct module_notes_attrs with __counted_by module: Fix comment typo module: Make is_valid_name() return bool module: Make is_mapping_symbol() return bool module/decompress: use vmalloc() for gzip decompression workspace MAINTAINERS: add include/linux/module*.h to modules module: Clarify documentation of module_param_call()
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
