Subject: [PATCH 13/13] module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL*
Date: Tue,  2 Feb 2021 13:13:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210202121334.1361503-14-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210202121334.1361503-1-hch@lst.de>

EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL* is not actually used anywhere.  Remove the
unused functionality as we generally just remove unused code anyway.

Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

Subject: [PATCH 13/13] module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL*
Date: Tue,  2 Feb 2021 13:13:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210202121334.1361503-14-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210202121334.1361503-1-hch@lst.de>

EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL* is not actually used anywhere.  Remove the
unused functionality as we generally just remove unused code anyway.

Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
