From 8988bacd6045adf39719e5057e43170f83bd1709 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Qu Wenruo Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2021 17:30:44 +0800 Subject: kobject: unexport kobject_create() in kobject.h The function kobject_create() is only used by one caller, kobject_create_and_add(), no other driver uses it, nor is exported to other modules. However it's still exported in kobject.h, and can sometimes confuse users of kobject.h. Since all users should call kobject_create_and_add(), or if extra attributes are needed, should alloc the memory manually then call kobject_init_and_add().
