Subject: [PATCH 0/2] module: Add module name to modinfo

The mod structure is accessed for the "name" field prior to validating
sanity in check_modstruct_version(). This becomes very obvious once
struct layout randomization is happening, so instead add the module
name to modinfo and use that until the mod struct has been sanity-checked.
