Hi,

is there a special reason why genl_unregister_mc_group 
is not exported for module usage?

thanks,
Jiri Olsa

When there is an in-tree modular use of this function, we
will export it.

I'd like to dynamically add and remove multicast groups in my module,
and I'd like to use a genetlink...
Any idea besides the design change or leaving the genetlink? :)

When you merge your module upstream, we'll add the export.
