Hi Luis, Allen,

I had some free time so decided to make a quick start.
There is more outstanding; albeit, I wanted to share what
was accomplished thus far. Unfortunately, nothing has been
thoroughly tested yet. Please let me know your thoughts.


Aaron Tomlin (12):
  module: Move all into module/
  module: Simple refactor in preparation for split
  module: Move livepatch support to a separate file
  module: Move latched RB-tree support to a separate file
  module: Move arch strict rwx support to a separate file
  module: Move strict rwx support to a separate file
  module: Move extra signature support out of core code
  module: Move kmemleak support to a separate file
  module: Move kallsyms support into a separate file
  module: Move procfs support into a separate file
  module: Move sysfs support into a separate file
  module: Move kdb_modules list out of core code
