[PATCH] kthread: export park/unpark facility
From: Jean Tourrilhes
Date: Wed Jul 08 2015 - 20:51:34 EST
Hi,
The kthread park/unpark facility is not used in the kernel, so
one would assume that it's made for kernel modules. This patch should
definitely help most modules.
Patch untested, at your own risks...
Regards,
Jean
