Subject: [PATCH] remove __put_task_struct_cb export again
Date: Fri, 10 Mar 2006 22:20:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060310212039.GA16910@lst.de> (raw)

The patch '[PATCH] RCU signal handling' [1] added an export for
__put_task_struct_cb, a put_task_struct helper newly introduced in that
patch.  But the put_task_struct couldn't be used modular previously
as __put_task_struct wasn't exported.  There are not callers of it in
modular code, and it shouldn't be exported because we don't want drivers
to hold references to task_structs.

This patch removes the export and folds __put_task_struct into
__put_task_struct_cb as there's no other caller.
