This patch series adds support for module metadata. Here are the pieces
of the puzzle:
(1) Macros are added to store metadata in a .modinfo elf section
(idea stolen from the linux kernel).
(2) A utility to scan modules, collect metadata from the .modinfo
sections, store it in a file (modinfo.json) for later consumption
by qemu. Can also be easily inspected using 'jq'.
(3) Adding annotations to the modules we have.
(4) Drop hard-coded lists from utils/module.c
take care,
