Subject: [PATCH 1/4] maccess,probe_kernel: Allow arch specific override probe_kernel_(read|write)
Date: Thu, 7 Jan 2010 12:59:53 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1262890796-25053-2-git-send-email-jason.wessel@windriver.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1262890796-25053-1-git-send-email-jason.wessel@windriver.com>
Some archs such as blackfin, would like to have an arch specific
probe_kernel_read() and probe_kernel_write() implementation which can
fall back to the generic implementation if no special operations are
needed.
