^^
nit: if we dropped the trailing array comma delimiter from KLP_SYMPOS
macro, the invocations would look more intuitively like an array. For
example:
KLP_MODULE_RELOC(test_klp_convert_mod) test_klp_convert_mod_relocs_a[] = {
KLP_SYMPOS(driver_name, 0),
KLP_SYMPOS(homonym_string, 2),
KLP_SYMPOS(get_homonym_string, 2),
};
But I could not figure out a good regex to reference if other such
kernel preprocessor macros include or exclude the delimiter. Are there
reasons to include it?
