[PATCH v2 15/29] modpost: allow to pass -i option multiple times remove -e option

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Sun May 24 2020 - 11:43:54 EST


Now that there is no difference in the functionality of -i and -e,
they can be unified.

Make modpost accept the -i option multiple times, then remove -e.

I will reuse -e for a different purpose.
