Merge branch 'module' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux-2.6-for-linus

* 'module' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux-2.6-for-linus:
  modpost: fix segfault with short symbol names
  module: handle ppc64 relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y
  Kbuild: clear marker out of modpost
  module: make MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX into a CONFIG option
  ARM: unexport symbols used to implement floating point emulation
  ARM: use unified discard definition in linker script
  x86: don't export inline function
  sparc64: don't export static inline pci_ functions
