[PATCH] Minor module cleanup 2/3

From: Rusty Russell (rusty@rustcorp.com.au)
Date: Wed Mar 26 2003 - 23:12:27 EST


Linus, please apply.

This removes the separate symbol list: it has a 1:1 mapping with the
module list anyway.

[ This is made trivial by the fact that noone accesses this list from
  outside module.c any more. ]

Rusty.

Name: Symbol list removal Author: Rusty Russell Status: Tested on 2.5.66-bk2 Depends: Module/module-text-address.patch.gz

D: This removes the symbol list, and the concept of kernel symbol groups, D: in favour of just iterating through the modules. Now all iteration is D: within kernel/module.c, this is a fairly trivial cleanup.
