  module: Remove a extra null character at the top of module-&gt;strtab.
  ASN.1: Use the ASN1_LONG_TAG and ASN1_INDEFINITE_LENGTH constants
  ASN.1: Define indefinite length marker constant
  moduleparam: use __UNIQUE_ID()
  __UNIQUE_ID()
  MODSIGN: Add modules_sign make target

kcmp has appeared on x86, but has not been noticed because
checksyscalls.sh is broken at the moment.  Reserve ARM syscall 378
for this should we ever need it, and add an __IGNORE entry for this
unimplemented syscall.
