----------------------------------------------------------------
Modules changes for v6.12-rc1

There are a few fixes / cleanups from Vincent, Chunhui, and Petr, but the
most important part of this pull request is the Rust community stepping
up to help maintain both C / Rust code for future Rust module support. We
grow the set of modules maintainers by 3 now, and with this hope to scale to
help address what's needed to properly support future Rust module support.

A lot of exciting stuff coming in future kernel releases.

This has been on linux-next for ~ 3 weeks now with no issues.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Chunhui Li (1):
      module: abort module loading when sysfs setup suffer errors

Luis Chamberlain (1):
      MAINTAINERS: scale modules with more reviewers

Petr Pavlu (2):
      module: Split modules_install compression and in-kernel decompression
      module: Clean up the description of MODULE_SIG_<type>
