Modules changes for v6.12-rc1

There are a few fixes / cleanups from Vincent, Chunhui, and Petr, but the
 most important part of this pull request is the Rust community stepping
 up to help maintain both C / Rust code for future Rust module support. We
 grow the set of modules maintainers by 3 now, and with this hope to scale to
 help address what's needed to properly support future Rust module support.
 
 A lot of exciting stuff coming in future kernel releases.
 
 This has been on linux-next for ~ 3 weeks now with no issues.
