script: improve markup_oops.pl to also decode oopses in modules
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
There has been some light flamewar on lkml about decoding oopses
in modules (as part of the crashdump flamewar).

Now this isn't rocket science, just the markup_oops.pl script
cheaped out and didn't handle modules. But really; a flamewar
all about that?? What happened to C++ in the kernel or reading
files from inside the kernel?

This patch adds module support to markup_oops.pl; it's not the
most pretty perl but it works for my testcases...
