Subject: [PATCH] connector: add module alias
Date: Thu, 9 Dec 2010 09:36:46 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101209093646.1b5a6abb@nehalam> (raw)
Since connector can be built as a module and uses netlink socket
to communicate. The module should have an alias to autoload when socket
of NETLINK_CONNECTOR type is requested.
