In case it helps resolve this, here's some info from the 
upstream man-pages 2.24 changelog:

[[
New pages
---------

get_kernel_syms.2
create_module.2
delete_module.2
init_module.2
query_module.2
    FSF / mtk (with assistance of Luc Van Oostenryck)
        man-pages finally gets pages for these system calls, several
        of which are obsolete in Linux 2.6.
        Took the old GPLed pages dated 1996 and made a number of
        clean-ups and minor additions.
]]

Everything that was in the old pages in in my newer versions
of the pages, plus a few extra small details added.

Cheers,

Michael
