Subject: [v2 1/3] kernel: param: rename locate_module_kobject
Date: Thu, 6 Feb 2025 21:45:36 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250207054538.1110340-2-shyamsaini@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250207054538.1110340-1-shyamsaini@linux.microsoft.com>
The locate_module_kobject() function looks up an existing
module_kobject for a given module name. If it cannot find the
corresponding module_kobject, it creates one for the given name.
This commit renames locate_module_kobject() to
lookup_or_create_module_kobject() to better describe its operations.
This doesn't change anything functionality wise.
