Previously, there were two cases where mod->is_dot_o is unset: [1] the executable 'vmlinux' in the second pass of modpost [2] modules loaded by read_dump() I think [1] was intended usage to distinguish 'vmlinux.o' and 'vmlinux'. Now that modpost does not parse the executable 'vmlinux', this case does not happen. [2] is obscure, maybe a bug. Module.symver stores module paths without extension. So, none of modules loaded by read_dump() has the .o suffix, and new_module() unsets ->is_dot_o. Anyway, it is not a big deal because handle_symbol() is not called for the case. To sum up, all the parsed ELF files are .o files. mod->is_dot_o is unneeded.
