This file consists of nothing other than things like:

There is no reason for it to require module.h

Don't allow a module built without versions altogether to be inserted
into a kernel which expects modversions.

modprobe --force will strip vermagic as well as modversions, so it
won't be effected, but this will make sure that a
non-CONFIG_MODVERSIONS module won't be accidentally inserted into a
CONFIG_MODVERSIONS kernel.

Apparently IA64 needs it, but i386/x86-64 don't anymore
since gcc 2.95 support was dropped.  Nobody else on linux-arch
requested keeping it generically

include/linux/version.h contained both actual KERNEL version
and UTS_RELEASE that contains a subset from git SHA1 for when
kernel was compiled as part of a git repository.
This had the unfortunate side-effect that all files including version.h
would be recompiled when some git changes was made due to changes SHA1.
Split it out so we keep independent parts in separate files.

Also update checkversion.pl script to no longer check for UTS_RELEASE.

<title>[PATCH] module support: record in vermagic ability to unload a module</title>

An UML user reported (against 2.6.13.3/UML) he got kernel Oopses when
trying to rmmod (on a kernel with module unloading enabled) a module
compiled with module unloading disabled.  As crashing is a very correct
thing to do in that case, a solution is altering the vermagic string to
include this too.

Possibly, however, the code should not crash in this case, even if the
module didn't support unloading - it should simply abort the module
removal.  In this case, fixing that bug would be a better solution.  I've
not investigated though.

(akpm: a bit marginal - root screwed up and shot himself in the foot).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
