The function within is defined in the main.c file, but not called
elsewhere, so remove this unused function.
Huh? It's used by __module_text_address(), no?
Not after commit 2ece476a2346 ("module: replace module_layout with
module_memory") in -next. This patch should have a fixes tag, even if
the warning is currently hidden behind W=1.
Huh, I thought I had checked out latest -next, but must have not done so
somehow :-) Mea culpa.

If it's only in -next then no Fixes needed, since there's no stable rev yet.

Jiapeng, in future, please make sure to cc the author of related commits when
reporting stuff like this :-) It helps people to update their patches.

Song, you probably want to update your patch.
Luis, would you prefer a new patch with everything folded in? Or would
you apply the patches on your end?
I've merged this patch separately onto modules-next and enhanced the
commit log to explain its needed after your patch.
