Merge tag 'modules-7.0-rc3.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/modules/linux
Pull module fixes from Sami Tolvanen: - Fix a potential kernel panic in the module loader by adding a bounds check for the ELF section index. This prevents crashes if attempting to load a module that uses SHN_XINDEX or is corrupted. - Fix the Kconfig menu layout for module versioning, signing, and compression options so they correctly appear as submenus in menuconfig. - Remove a redundant lockdep_free_key_range() call in the load_module() error path. This is already handled by module_deallocate() calling free_mod_mem() since the module_memory rework. * tag 'modules-7.0-rc3.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/modules/linux: module: Fix kernel panic when a symbol st_shndx is out of bounds module: Fix the modversions and signing submenus module: Remove duplicate freeing of lockdep classes
