[PATCH 0/6] treewide: rename 'mod_init' & 'mod_exit' functions to be module-specific

[Randy Dunlap]

There are multiple (16) modules which use a module_init() function
with the name 'mod_init' and a module_exit() function with the name
'mod_exit'. This can lead to confusion or ambiguity when reading
crashes/oops/bugs etc. and when reading an initcall_debug log.

Example 1: (System.map file)

ffffffff83446d10 t mod_init
ffffffff83446d18 t mod_init
ffffffff83446d20 t mod_init
...
ffffffff83454665 t mod_init
ffffffff834548a4 t mod_init
ffffffff83454a53 t mod_init
...
ffffffff8345bd42 t mod_init
...
ffffffff8345c916 t mod_init
ffffffff8345c92a t mod_init
ffffffff8345c93e t mod_init
ffffffff8345c952 t mod_init
ffffffff8345c966 t mod_init
...
ffffffff834672c9 t mod_init

Example 2: (boot log when using 'initcall_debug')
