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) produced these errors/warnings:

drivers/staging/rtl8712/usb_intf.c:172:1: warning: data definition has no type or storage class [enabled by default]
drivers/staging/rtl8712/usb_intf.c:172:1: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE' [-Wimplicit-int]
drivers/staging/rtl8712/usb_intf.c:172:1: warning: parameter names (without types) in function declaration [enabled by default]
drivers/staging/rtl8712/usb_intf.c: In function 'r8712u_drv_entry':
drivers/staging/rtl8712/usb_intf.c:649:9: error: 'THIS_MODULE' undeclared (first use in this function)
drivers/staging/rtl8712/hal_init.c:66:17: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before string constant

Caused by various commits in the staging tree interacting with the
module.h split.

I have added the following patch:
