Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the moduleh tree

Hi Paul,

After merging the moduleh tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

drivers/staging/zcache/zcache-main.c:57:16: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant
drivers/staging/zcache/zcache-main.c:57:1: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
drivers/staging/zcache/zcache-main.c:57:1: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'MODULE_LICENSE'
drivers/staging/zcache/zcache-main.c:57:16: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype

Caused by commit fd6b68bbac9f ("staging: zcache: module is GPL")
interacting with the module.h split up.

Greg, this file needs module.h even in upstream.

I have reverted that commit for today.
