Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6] net: disallow to use net_assign_generic externally
Date: Fri, 23 Apr 2010 13:40:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100423114046.GC2853@psychotron.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com> (raw)

Now there's no need to use this fuction directly because it's handled by
register_pernet_device. So to make this simple and easy to understand,
make this static to do not tempt potentional users.
