+config MODULE_ALLOW_MISSING_NAMESPACE_IMPORTS
+ bool "Allow loading of modules with missing namespace imports"
+ help
+ Symbols exported with EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS*() are considered exported in
+ a namespace. A module that makes use of a symbol exported with such a
+ namespace is required to import the namespace via MODULE_IMPORT_NS().
+ There is no technical reason to enforce correct namespace imports,
+ but it creates consistency between symbols defining namespaces and
+ users importing namespaces they make use of. This option relaxes this
+ requirement and lifts the enforcement when loading a module.

+ Unused but exported symbols make the kernel needlessly bigger. For
+ that reason most of these unused exports will soon be removed. This
+ option is provided temporarily to provide a transition period in case
+ some external kernel module needs one of these symbols anyway. If you
+ encounter such a case in your module, consider if you are actually
+ using the right API. (rationale: since nobody in the kernel is using
+ this in a module, there is a pretty good chance it's actually the
+ wrong interface to use). If you really need the symbol, please send a
+ mail to the linux kernel mailing list mentioning the symbol and why
+ you really need it, and what the merge plan to the mainline kernel for
+ your module is.
