From: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2013 23:45:41 +0100 > We only call that in functions annotated with __init, so add __init > prefix in prandom_start_seed_timer() as well, so that the kernel can > make use of this hint and we can possibly free up resources after it's > usage. And since it's an internal function rename it to > __prandom_start_seed_timer(). > > Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> > Signed-off-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Applied. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
