[PATCH v1 06/10] asm-generic: Refactor dereference_[kernel]_function_descriptor()

Christophe Leroy christophe.leroy at csgroup.eu
Tue Oct 12 02:25:33 AEDT 2021


dereference_function_descriptor() and
dereference_kernel_function_descriptor() are identical on the
three architectures implementing them.

Make it common.
