From a8ca16ea7b0abb0a7e49492d1123b715f0ec62e8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Howells Date: Fri, 12 Apr 2013 17:27:28 +0100 Subject: proc: Supply a function to remove a proc entry by PDE Supply a function (proc_remove()) to remove a proc entry (and any subtree rooted there) by proc_dir_entry pointer rather than by name and (optionally) root dir entry pointer. This allows us to eliminate all remaining pde->name accesses outside of procfs.
