The merge commit message above promised a patch by Nick Piggin. CC'ing Michal Marek. CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is not an ARM driver but a very core setting that I do not feel qualified to simply turn off on our master branch. If Jeff wants to do that temporarily, that would be fine with me, but I cannot judge what side-effects that may have for KMPs and what-not.
