    Linus reported this new build warning:
    
      kernel/module.c:2951: warning: ?struct marker? declared inside parameter list
      kernel/module.c:2951: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want

    : tracing: Remove markers
    
    module_layout() is an artificial symbol with 'significant' symbols
    listed in its argument list so that it gets a proper argument types
    signature that modversions can pick up to decide whether a
    module is version-compatible or not. If these dont match then we
    wont even look at a module.
    
    Remove the stale marker symbol.
