[PATCH v3 3/3] kernel/notifier.c: remove blocking_notifier_chain_cond_register()
From: Xiaoming Ni
Date: Tue Jul 09 2019 - 23:09:43 EST
blocking_notifier_chain_cond_register() does not consider
system_booting state, which is the only difference between this
function and blocking_notifier_cain_register(). This can be a bug
and is a piece of duplicate code.
Delete blocking_notifier_chain_cond_register()
