Linus Torvalds 67b7e1f241 modules patches for 5.16-rc1
As requested by Jessica I'm stepping in to help with modules
 maintenance. This is my first pull request to you.
 
 I've collected only two patches for modules for the 5.16-rc1 merge
 window. These patches are from Shuah Khan as she debugged some corner
 case error with modules. The error messages are improved for
 elf_validity_check(). While doing this work a corner case fix was
 spotted on validate_section_offset() due to a possible overflow bug
 on 64-bit. The impact of this fix is low given this just limits
 module section headers placed within the 32-bit boundary, and we
 obviously don't have insane module sizes. Even if a specially crafted
 module is constructed later checks would invalidate the module right
 away.
 
 I've let this sit through 0-day testing since October 15th with no
 issues found.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
