param: do not set store func without write perm (2014-12-18 12:38:51 +1030)
---------------------------------------------------------------- The exciting thing here is the getting rid of stop_machine on module removal. This is possible by using a simple atomic_t for the counter, rather than our fancy per-cpu counter: it turns out that no one is doing a module increment per net packet, so the slowdown should be in the noise.
Also, script fixed for new git version.
Cheers, Rusty.
