[PATCH 15/30] sunrpc: do not pin sunrpc module in the memory

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Denis V. Lunev <den@xxxxxxxxxx>

Basically, try_module_get here are pretty useless. Any other module using
this API will pin sunrpc in memory due using exported symbols.
