Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/5] kmod - rename call_usermodehelper() flags parameter
Date: Wed, 14 Jan 2015 17:32:36 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150114093235.30252.32173.stgit@pluto.fritz.box> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150114092704.30252.60446.stgit@pluto.fritz.box>

The wait parameter of call_usermodehelper() is not quite a parameter
that describes the wait behaviour alone and will later be used to
request exec within a namespace.

So change its name to flags.
