 * Originally by Anonymous (as far as I know...)
 * Linux version by Bas Laarhoven <bas@vimec.nl>
 * 0.99.14 version by Jon Tombs <jon@gtex02.us.es>,
 *
 * Heavily modified by Bjorn Ekwall <bj0rn@blox.se> May 1994 (C)
 * This source is covered by the GNU GPL, the same as all kernel sources.
 *
 * Features:
 *	- Supports stacked modules (removable only of there are no dependents).
 *	- Supports table of symbols defined by the modules.
 *	- Supports /proc/ksyms, showing value, name and owner of all
 *	  the symbols defined by all modules (in stack order).
 *	- Added module dependencies information into /proc/modules
 *	- Supports redefines of all symbols, for streams-like behaviour.
 *	- Compatible with older versions of insmod.
 *
 * New addition in December 1994: (Bjorn Ekwall, idea from Jacques Gelinas)
 *	- Externally callable function:
 *
 *		"int register_symtab(struct symbol_table *)"
 *
 *	  This function can be called from within the kernel,
 *	  and ALSO from loadable modules.
 *	  The goal is to assist in modularizing the kernel even more,
 *	  and finally: reducing the number of entries in ksyms.c
 *	  since every subsystem should now be able to decide and
 *	  control exactly what symbols it wants to export, locally!

 * in lifo order!!!
 *
 * The symbols to "insmod" are according to the "old" format: struct kernel_sym,
 * which is actually quite handy for this purpose.
 * Note that insmod inserts a struct symbol_table later on...
 * (as that format is quite handy for the kernel...)
 *
 * For every module, the first (pseudo)symbol copied is the module name
 * and the address of the module struct.
 * This lets "insmod" keep track of references, and build the array of
 * struct module_refs in the symbol table.
 * The format of the module name is "#module", so that "insmod" can easily
 * notice when a module name comes along. Also, this will make it possible
 * to use old versions of "insmod", albeit with reduced functionality...
 * The "kernel" module has an empty name.
