MODULE_IMPORT_NS() changed to accept string literals in kernel 6.13 #39

@chrBrd

Description

@chrBrd

Builds break with kernel 6.13 as MODULE_IMPORT_NS() has been changed to accept string literals instead of constants:

[   25s] gasket_page_table.c:57:18: error: expected ‘,’ or ‘;’ before ‘DMA_BUF’
[   25s]    57 | MODULE_IMPORT_NS(DMA_BUF);
[   25s]       |                  ^~~~~~~
[   25s] /usr/src/linux-6.13.0-1/include/linux/moduleparam.h:26:61: note: in definition of macro ‘__MODULE_INFO’
[   25s]    26 |                 = __MODULE_INFO_PREFIX __stringify(tag) "=" info
[   25s]       |                                                             ^~~~
[   25s] /usr/src/linux-6.13.0-1/include/linux/module.h:299:33: note: in expansion of macro ‘MODULE_INFO’
[   25s]   299 | #define MODULE_IMPORT_NS(ns)    MODULE_INFO(import_ns, ns)
[   25s]       |                                 ^~~~~~~~~~~
[   25s] gasket_page_table.c:57:1: note: in expansion of macro ‘MODULE_IMPORT_NS’
[   25s]    57 | MODULE_IMPORT_NS(DMA_BUF);
[   25s]       | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is simple enough to fix, as seen in torvalds/linux@cdd30eb.

I'll have a PR up shortly.
