Currently, strstarts() is only used in export_from_secname().
Use it more widely to improve the code readability.

get_(next_)modinfo takes a pointer and length pair of the .modinfo
section.  Instead, pass struct elf_info pointer to reduce the number
of function arguments.

CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX was selected by BLACKFIN, METAG.
They were removed by commit 4ba66a976072 ("arch: remove blackfin port"),
commit bb6fb6dfcc17 ("metag: Remove arch/metag/"), respectively.

No more architecture enables CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX,
hence VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR(foo) can be simplify replaced with "foo".

Due to missing a missing entry in file2alias.c MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() are
not generating the proper module aliases. Add the needed entry here.

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.
