However, there is already one in svc.c, pulled into the same module. in your test build, is CONFIG_LOCKD defined as "m" or "y" ? You should always test both. One solution here is to create a "local" init function in svcsubs.c and expose it to svc.c, so the latter can call it from its module init function.
