From 95b467ca30d2e56c08fbe541a02318470457cca7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2012 15:02:49 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] kmod: introduce call_modprobe() helper commit 3e63a93b987685f02421e18b2aa452d20553a88b upstream. No functional changes. Move the call_usermodehelper code from __request_module() into the new simple helper, call_modprobe().
