Merge tag 'modules-6.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux

Pull modules updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "The only thing worth highligthing is that gzip moves to use vmalloc()
  instead of kmalloc just as we had a fix for this for zstd on v6.6-rc1.

  The rest is regular house keeping, keeping things neat, tidy, and
  boring"

[ The kmalloc -> vmalloc conversion is not the right approach.

  Unless you know you need huge areas or know you need to use virtual
  mappings for some reason (playing with protection bits or whatever),
  you should use kvmalloc()/kvfree, which automatically picks the right
  allocation model    - Linus ]
