The text always mentions ...bin.o_shipped, just the example makefiles
actually use ...bin_shipped. It was corrected in one place some time
ago, these ones seem to have been forgotten.

This patch adds a new (Kbuild) Makefile variable KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS.
The space separated list of file names assigned to KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS
is used when calling scripts/mod/modpost during stage 2 of the Kbuild
process for non-kernel-tree modules.

The Makefile fragment in Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt looks to be
missing some braces.

I have done a look-through through Documentation/kbuild/ and my corrections
(proposed) are attached.

Cc'ed are original author Michael (responsible for comitting changes to
these files?), Sam (kbuild maintainer), Adrian (-trivial maintainer).

With following patch a second option is enabled to obtain
symbol information from a second external module when a
external module is build.
The recommended approach is to use a common kbuild file but
that may be impractical in certain cases.
With this patch one can copy over a Module.symvers from one
external module to make symbols (and symbol versions) available
for another external module.

Support building individual files when dealing with separate modules.
So say you have a module named "foo" which consist of two .o files bar.o
and fun.o.

You can then do:
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` bar.o
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` bar.lst
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` bar.i
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` /            <= will build all .o files
                                           and link foo.o
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` foo.ko       <= will build the module
                                           and do the modpost step
					   to create foo.ko

The above will also work if the external module is placed in a
subdirectory using a hirachy of kbuild files.
Thanks to Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de> for initial feature
request / bug report.
