From 3f2b9c9cdf389e303b2273679af08aab5f153517 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2013 05:48:51 +0930 Subject: module: remove rmmod --wait option. The option to wait for a module reference count to reach zero was in the initial module implementation, but it was never supported in modprobe (you had to use rmmod --wait). After discussion with Lucas, It has been deprecated (with a 10 second sleep) in kmod for the last year. This finally removes it: the flag will evoke a printk warning and a normal (non-blocking) remove attempt.
