[PATCH v3 4/4] net/sched: Remove aliases of act_xt and sch_clsact
From: Michal Koutný
Date: Fri Jan 12 2024 - 13:08:25 EST
The modules act_ipt and sch_ingress standout among net/sched modules
because they provide multiple act/sch functionalities in a single .ko.
They have aliases to make autoloading work for any of the provided
functionalities.
Since the autoloading was changed to uniformly request any functionality
under its alias, the non-systemic aliases can be removed now (i.e.
assuming the alias were only used to ensure autoloading).
