Why force all of the modules to be changed "by hand", and not just do this automatically by changing the register function to include the THIS_MODULE macro in it?

That makes it impossible for driver authors to get it wrong, which is always a good sign of a correct api. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
