Subject: Remove dependency on kallsyms for splice_to_pipe (kernel 4.2+)
X-Git-Tag: v2.11.3~10
X-Git-Url: https://git.lttng.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d1871f9e416d700fa268af9f799a6da75dd937da;p=lttng-modules.git

Remove dependency on kallsyms for splice_to_pipe (kernel 4.2+)

Upstream commit 2b514574f7e88 "net: af_unix: implement splice for stream
af_unix sockets" exported the "splice_to_pipe" symbol, so use it to
remove a dependency on kallsyms_lookup_name().
