Subject: [PATCH] modpost: do not warn about missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() for vmlinux.o
Date: Fri, 7 Jun 2024 03:36:12 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240606183921.1128911-1-masahiroy@kernel.org> (raw)
Building with W=1 incorrectly emits the following warning:
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in vmlinux.o
This check should apply only to modules.
Fixes: 1fffe7a34c89 ("script: modpost: emit a warning when the description is missing")
