Subject: vhost: remove unnecessary module_init/exit functions
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b20b0867f2b36f382d6e77b8f2a489cc37a94366;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

vhost: remove unnecessary module_init/exit functions

The vhost driver has unnecessary empty module_init and
module_exit functions. Remove them. Note that if a module_init function
exists, a module_exit function must also exist; otherwise, the module
cannot be unloaded.
