Subject: [PATCH] vhost: remove unnecessary module_init/exit functions
Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2026 18:00:09 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260131020010.45647-1-enelsonmoore@gmail.com> (raw)

The vhost driver has unnecessary empty module_init and
module_exit functions. Remove them. Note that if a module_init function
exists, a module_exit function must also exist; otherwise, the module
cannot be unloaded.
