Subject: uprobes: Kill uprobe_consumer->filter()
X-Git-Tag: next-20130218~38^2~20^2^2~35
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fe20d71f25400cccc8bffef865f79250be7dbc81;p=karo-tx-linux.git

uprobes: Kill uprobe_consumer->filter()

uprobe_consumer->filter() is pointless in its current form, kill it.

We will add it back, but with the different signature/semantics. Perhaps
we will even re-introduce the callsite in handler_chain(), but not to
just skip uc->handler().
