Merge tag 'modules-5.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux
Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain: "As requested by Jessica I'm stepping in to help with modules maintenance. This is my first pull request to you. I've collected only two patches for modules for the 5.16-rc1 merge window. These patches are from Shuah Khan as she debugged some corner case error with modules. The error messages are improved for elf_validity_check(). While doing this work a corner case fix was spotted on validate_section_offset() due to a possible overflow bug on 64-bit. The impact of this fix is low given this just limits module section headers placed within the 32-bit boundary, and we obviously don't have insane module sizes. Even if a specially crafted module is constructed later checks would invalidate the module right away. I've let this sit through 0-day testing since October 15th with no issues found" * tag 'modules-5.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux: module: change to print useful messages from elf_validity_check() module: fix validate_section_offset() overflow bug on 64-bit
