[PATCH] livepatch: make klp_mutex proper part of API

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

 



From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@xxxxxxx>

klp_mutex is shared between core.c and transition.c, and as such would 
rather be properly located in livepatch.h so that we don't have to play 
'extern' games from .c sources.

This also silences sparse warning (wrongly) suggesting that klp_mutex 
should be defined static.
