Subject: [PATCH 1/3] probe_kernel_address() can use __probe_kernel_read()
Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2014 20:54:05 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141027195405.GB11736@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20141027195339.GA11736@redhat.com>
probe_kernel_address() can just do __probe_kernel_read(sizeof(retval)),
no need to open-code its implementation.
