Subject: [PATCH 11/11] uml ubd driver: various little changes
From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@...oo.it>
Fix a small memory leak in ubd_config, and clearify the confusion which lead to
it.
Then, some little changes not affecting operations -
* move init functions together,
* add a comment about a potential problem in case of some evolution in the block layer,
* mark all initcalls as static __init functions
* mark an used once little function as inline
* document that mconsole methods are all called in process context (was
triggered when checking ubd mconsole methods).
