Subject[PATCH net-next 1/1] driver.h: add helper macro for module_exit() boilerplate
Date
For the modules need a module_init() but don't need to do
anything special in module_exit() might need to have an empty
module_exit(). This patch add a new macro module_exit_stub() to
replace the empty module_exit(). The macro is useful to remove
the module_exit() boilerplate.
