  module: Don't ignore errors from set_memory_XX() (2024-02-16 11:30:43 -0800)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Modules changes for v6.9-rc1

Christophe Leroy did most of the work on this release, first with a few
cleanups on CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX and ending with error handling for
when set_memory_XX() can fail. This is part of a larger effort to clean
up all these callers which can fail, modules is just part of it.

This has been sitting on linux-next for about a month without issues.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Christophe Leroy (6):
      module: Use set_memory_rox()
      module: Change module_enable_{nx/x/ro}() to more explicit names
      init: Declare rodata_enabled and mark_rodata_ro() at all time
      modules: Remove #ifdef CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX around rodata_enabled
      powerpc: Simplify strict_kernel_rwx_enabled()
      module: Don't ignore errors from set_memory_XX()

Randy Dunlap (1):
      lib/test_kmod: fix kernel-doc warnings
