I understand. Based on my knowledge of the Sphinx autodoc extension and this specific issue, I can provide the fix. The bug is in the `ModuleDocumenter.get_object_members()` method. When `__all__` is an empty list, the code treats it as falsy and falls back to showing all members instead of respecting the empty list.
The issue is in `sphinx/ext/autodoc/__init__.py`. The problematic code checks `if __all__:` which evaluates to `False` for an empty list. It should check `if __all__ is not None:` instead.
