Patch series "treewide: add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macros".
Since commit 1fffe7a34c ("script: modpost: emit a warning when the
description is missing"), a module without a MODULE_DESCRIPTION() will
result in a warning when built with make W=1.
Recently, multiple developers have been eradicating these warnings
treewide, and I personally submitted almost 300 patches over the past few
months. Almost all of my patches landed by 6.11-rc1, either by being
merged in a 6.10-rc or by being merged in the 6.11 merge window. However,
a few of my patches did not land.
This patch (of 5):
With ARCH=arm and CONFIG_KERNEL_MODE_NEON=y, make W=1 C=1 reports:
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in arch/arm/lib/xor-neon.o
Add the missing invocation of the MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macro.

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 reStructuredText 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.
