Christoph suggested that the explicit _GPL_ can be dropped from the module namespace export macro, as it's intended for in-tree modules only.

I'm wondering if we could revisit that idea later, and have a config option that enables that. The use cases so far were mostly around testing IIRC, where people already run their own debug kernel or sth. like that.
