  module: Don't wait for GOING modules (2023-01-24 12:52:52 -0800)

modules-6.2-rc6

There has been a fix we have been delaying for v6.2 due to lack of
early testing on linux-next. The commit has been sitting on linux-next
since December and testing has also been now a bit extensive by a few
developers. Since this is a fix which definitely will go to v6.3 it
should also apply to v6.2 so if there are any issues we pick them up
earlier rather than later. The fix fixes a regression since v5.3, prior
to me helping with module maintenance, however, the issue is real in
that in the worst case now can prevent boot.

We've discussed all possible corner cases [0] and at last do feel this is
ready for v6.2-rc6.
