Message-Id: <11722725833599-git-send-email-gregkh@suse.de>
Date: Fri, 23 Feb 2007 15:15:56 -0800
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...e.de>
To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org
Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...e.de>
Subject: [PATCH 9/9] Revert "Driver core: let request_module() send a /sys/modules/kmod/-uevent"
This reverts commit c353c3fb0700a3c17ea2b0237710a184232ccd7f.
It turns out that we end up with a loop trying to load the unix
module and calling netfilter to do that. Will redo the patch
later to not have this loop.
