Ok, so it sounds like Jiri's suggestion to put the address in the attribute won't fly. Any objections to just removing the "func" attribute altogether?

Any objections to getting rid of it as well? -- Josh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe live-patching" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
