Subject: [PATCH 2.5.69] Fix module ref counting in block/loop.c
Date: Fri, 9 May 2003 16:17:53 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030509161753.75a17f2e.shemminger@osdl.org> (raw)

Replace old MOD_INC with new __module_get.
No need for using try_module_get, because module_get is only called in open
routine where there must already be a ref count.
