There are two call sites for sym_update_namespace(). When the symbol has no namespace, s->namespace is set to NULL, but the conversion from "" to NULL is done in two different places. [1] read_symbols() This gets the namespace from __kstrtabns_<symbol>. If the symbol has no namespace, sym_get_data(info, sym) returns the empty string "". namespace_from_kstrtabns() converts it to NULL before it is passed to sym_update_namespace(). [2] read_dump() This gets the namespace from the dump file, *.symvers. If the symbol has no namespace, the 'namespace' is the empty string "", which is directly passed into sym_update_namespace(). The conversion from "" to NULL is done in sym_update_namespace(). namespace_from_kstrtabns() exists only for creating this inconsistency. Remove namespace_from_kstrtabns() so that sym_update_namespace() is consistently passed with "" instead of NULL.
