In the cover letter, you said:
As the name implies, the write protection kicks in only after init()
is completed; before that moment, the data is modifiable in the usual
way.
Given that, is it still necessary or useful to use wr_assign() in a
function marked with __init?
I might have been over enthusiastic of using the wr interface.
You are right, I can drop these two. Thank you.
