Re: [PATCH] scripts: Remove export_report.pl

Hi Matt,

This script has been broken for 5 years with no user complaints.

It first had its .mod.c parser broken in commit a3d0cb04f7df ("modpost:
use __section in the output to *.mod.c"). Later, it had its object file
enumeration broken in commit f65a486821cf ("kbuild: change module.order
to list *.o instead of *.ko"). Both of these changes sat for years with
no reports.

Rather than reviving this script as we make further changes to `.mod.c`,
this patch gets rid of it because it is clearly unused.

Thanks for the patch! Applying this separately without waiting for the
rest of the extended modversions series to land makes sense to me.
