Subject: [PATCH 0/3] module: fixups after module namespace conversion


[1/3]
Commit cdd30ebb1b9f added double-quotes to enclose the variable in the
semantic patch, scripts/coccinelle/misc/add_namespace.cocci.
Since then, 'make nsdepds' always changes the missing import to silly code:
   MODULE_IMPORT_NS("ns");

[2/3]
MODULE_IMPORT_NS("") is misleading in the context of documentation
about MODULE_IMPORT_NS() tags in general.

[3/3]
Convert DEFAULT_SYMBOL_NAMESPACE from a macro expansion to a string
literal. There is no good reason to keep inconsistency in the default
case.



Masahiro Yamada (3):
  scripts/nsdeps: get 'make nsdeps' working again
  doc: module: revert misconversions for MODULE_IMPORT_NS()
  module: Convert default symbol namespace to string literal
