  module: cleanup FIXME comments about trimming exception table entries.
  module: trim exception table on init free.
  module: merge module_alloc() finally
  uml module: fix uml build process due to this merge
  x86 module: merge the rest functions with macros
  x86 module: merge the same functions in module_32.c and module_64.c
  uvesafb: improve parameter handling.
  module_param: allow 'bool' module_params to be bool, not just int.
  module_param: add __same_type convenience wrapper for __builtin_types_compatible_p
  module_param: split perm field into flags and perm
  module_param: invbool should take a 'bool', not an 'int'
