Subject: [PATCH 3/7] uprobes: Turn add_utask() into get_utask()
Date: Mon, 31 Dec 2012 18:52:20 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121231175220.GA32098@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20121231175150.GA32066@redhat.com>
Rename add_utask() into get_utask() and change it to allocate on
demand to simplify the caller. Like get_xol_area() it will have
more users.
