Yes, I think that if we have already how to obtain the head/root where we want to insert things from structures present at that point in the code, no need to add it to the per-dso data structure. Thanks to Namhyung for finding an existing way of getting to the needed data structures. - Arnaldo -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
