(2016-02-03 16:58:15 +1030) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Fix for async_probe module param added in 4.3 (clearly not widely used yet), and a much more interesting kallsyms race which has been around approximately forever. This fix is more invasive, and will require some care in backporting, but I hated all the bandaids I could think of, so... There are some more coming, which are only for breakages introduced this cycle (livepatch), but wanted these in now. Thanks, Rusty. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Luis R.
