Commit 7840fea200cd ("kbuild: Fix computing srcversion for modules")
fixed the comment above parse_source_files to refer to the new source_
line, but left this one behind that could still give the impression that
drivers/net/dummy.c appears in the deps_ variable.

 "Here is the big pull request for char/misc drivers for 4.16-rc1.

  There's a lot of stuff in here. Three new driver subsystems were added
  for various types of hardware busses:

   - siox
   - slimbus
   - soundwire

  as well as a new vboxguest subsystem for the VirtualBox hypervisor
  drivers.

  There's also big updates from the FPGA subsystem, lots of Android
  binder fixes, the usual handful of hyper-v updates, and lots of other
  smaller driver updates.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a long time, with no reported
  issues"

Pull x86/pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Another set of melted spectrum related changes:

   - Code simplifications and cleanups for RSB and retpolines.

   - Make the indirect calls in KVM speculation safe.

   - Whitelist CPUs which are known not to speculate from Meltdown and
     prepare for the new CPUID flag which tells the kernel that a CPU is
     not affected.

   - A less rigorous variant of the module retpoline check which merily
     warns when a non-retpoline protected module is loaded and reflects
     that fact in the sysfs file.

   - Prepare for Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier support.

   - Prepare for exposure of the Speculation Control MSRs to guests, so
     guest OSes which depend on those "features" can use them. Includes
     a blacklist of the broken microcodes. The actual exposure of the
     MSRs through KVM is still being worked on"

<title>module/retpoline: Warn about missing retpoline in module</title>

<id>urn:sha1:caf7501a1b4ec964190f31f9c3f163de252273b8</id>
<content type='text'>
There's a risk that a kernel which has full retpoline mitigations becomes
vulnerable when a module gets loaded that hasn't been compiled with the
right compiler or the right option.

To enable detection of that mismatch at module load time, add a module info
string "retpoline" at build time when the module was compiled with
retpoline support. This only covers compiled C source, but assembler source
or prebuilt object files are not checked.

If a retpoline enabled kernel detects a non retpoline protected module at
load time, print a warning and report it in the sysfs vulnerability file.

<id>urn:sha1:ba1029c9cbc5af834467bf264e58f9d1074735fb</id>
<content type='text'>
Partially revert commit 2fa365682943 ("kbuild: soften MODULE_LICENSE
check") so that modpost detects modules that do not have a
MODULE_LICENSE.

Sam's commit also changed the fatal error to a warning, which I am
leaving as is.

This gives advance notice of when a module has no license and will taint
the kernel if the module is loaded.

This produces the following warnings on x86_64 allmodconfig:
