From d453cded05ee219b77815ea194dc36efa5398bca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2015 09:07:04 +1030 Subject: module_arch_freeing_init(): new hook for archs before module->module_init freed. Archs have been abusing module_free() to clean up their arch-specific allocations. Since module_free() is also (ab)used by BPF and trace code, let's keep it to simple allocations, and provide a hook called before that. This means that avr32, ia64, parisc and s390 no longer need to implement their own module_free() at all. avr32 doesn't need module_finalize() either.

Nothing needs the module pointer any more, and the next patch will call it from RCU, where the module itself might no longer exist. Removing the arg is the safest approach. This just codifies the use of the module_alloc/module_free pattern which ftrace and bpf use.
