[PATCH v7 05/16] module: make module_memory_{alloc,free} more self-contained

Mike Rapoport rppt at kernel.org
Mon Apr 29 22:16:09 AEST 2024


From: "Mike Rapoport (IBM)" <rppt at kernel.org>

Move the logic related to the memory allocation and freeing into
module_memory_alloc() and module_memory_free().
