Subject: [Patch] kallsyms: remove deprecated print_fn_descriptor_symbol()
Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2009 02:27:00 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091015062942.4391.22306.sendpatchset@localhost.localdomain> (raw)


According to feature-removal-schedule.txt, it is the time
to remove print_fn_descriptor_symbol().

And a quick grep shows that it no longer has any callers.

-What: print_fn_descriptor_symbol()
-When: October 2009
-Why:  The %pF vsprintf format provides the same functionality in a
-      simpler way.  print_fn_descriptor_symbol() is deprecated but
-      still present to give out-of-tree modules time to change.
