Jessica Yu 5190044c29 modpost: move the namespace field in Module.symvers last ... In order to preserve backwards compatability with kmod tools, we have to move the namespace field in Module.symvers last, as the depmod -e -E option looks at the first three fields in Module.symvers to check symbol versions (and it's expected they stay in the original order of crc, symbol, module). In addition, update an ancient comment above read_dump() in modpost that suggested that the export type field in Module.symvers was optional. I suspect that there were historical reasons behind that comment that are no longer accurate. We have been unconditionally printing the export type since 2.6.18 (commit bd5cbcedf4), which is over a decade ago now. Fix up read_dump() to treat each field as non-optional. I suspect the original read_dump() code treated the export field as optional in order to support pre <= 2.6.18 Module.symvers (which did not have the export type field). Note that although symbol namespaces are optional, the field will not be omitted from Module.symvers if a symbol does not have a namespace. In this case, the field will simply be empty and the next delimiter or end of line will follow.
