[RFC PATCH v2 3/6] module: s390: keep mod_arch_specific for livepatch modules
From: Jessica Yu
Date: Mon Nov 30 2015 - 23:22:50 EST
Livepatch needs to utilize the symbol information contained in the
mod_arch_specific struct in order to be able to call the s390
apply_relocate_add() function to apply relocations. Remove the redundant
vfree() in module_finalize() since module_arch_freeing_init() (which also frees
said structures) is called in do_init_module(). Keep a reference to syminfo if
the module is a livepatch module and free the structures in
module_arch_cleanup(). If the module isn't a livepatch module, we free the
structures in module_arch_freeing_init() as usual.
