Hi
Bellow i explain simple method used only for research purpose used as
countermeasure in order to run MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE macro whithout .ko file,
just fixing stringfy problems ,like:

ld: drivers/usb/host/ehci-pci.o:(.rodata+0x0): multiple definition of
`__mod_pci__pci_ids_device_table';
drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_mid.o:(.rodata+0x0): first defined here
ld: drivers/usb/host/ohci-pci.o:(.rodata+0x0): multiple definition of
`__mod_pci__pci_ids_device_table';
drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_mid.o:(.rodata+0x0): first defined here

People can build a list in format .txt in kernel with reserved names used around
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE, relative to names used by pci_id to avoid
duplicates, repeat ,loader
program is good make good job against this situation, seems random
number generator have
some issuess, or just voluntary just remove pci_id from kernel and let
developersto chose his name, and result double guards agains stringfy
problems.
