Subject: [2.6 patch] unexport open_softirq
Date: Tue, 11 Jul 2006 17:19:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060711151941.GU13938@stusta.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060711121226.GA12679@elte.hu>

Christoph Hellwig:
open_softirq just enables a softirq.  The softirq array is statically
allocated so to add a new one you would have to patch the kernel.  So
there's no point to keep this export at all as any user would have to
patch the enum in include/linux/interrupt.h anyway.
