From 10b465aaf9536ee5a16652fa0700740183d48ec9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Sat, 19 Dec 2009 14:43:01 +0000 Subject: modules: Skip empty sections when exporting section notes Commit 35dead4 "modules: don't export section names of empty sections via sysfs" changed the set of sections that have attributes, but did not change the iteration over these attributes in add_notes_attrs(). This can lead to add_notes_attrs() creating attributes with the wrong names or with null name pointers. Introduce a sect_empty() function and use it in both add_sect_attrs() and add_notes_attrs().
