+Subject: [PATCH] module_arch_freeing_init(): new hook for archs before module->module_init freed.
+
+Archs have been abusing module_free() to clean up their arch-specific
+allocations. Since module_free() is also (ab)used by BPF and trace code,
+let's keep it to simple allocations, and provide a hook called before
+that.
+
+This means that avr32, ia64, parisc and s390 no longer need to implement
+their own module_free() at all. avr32 doesn't need module_finalize()
+either.
