Modules using these symbols are required to explicitly import the namespace. This patch was generated with the following steps and serves as a reference to use the symbol namespace feature: 1) Define DEFAULT_SYMBOL_NAMESPACE in the corresponding Makefile 2) make (see warnings during modpost about missing imports) 3) make nsdeps Instead of a DEFAULT_SYMBOL_NAMESPACE definition, the EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS variants can be used to explicitly specify the namespace. The advantage of the method used here is that newly added symbols are automatically exported and existing ones are exported without touching their respective EXPORT_SYMBOL macro expansion.

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.
