From f0f65a95de2840db3fa61c953dca267e7b773168 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2013 15:41:31 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "staging: zram: Add auto loading of module if user opens /dev/zram." This reverts commit c70bda992c12e593e411c02a52e4bd6985407539. It's incorrect, Kay writes: Please just remove it. "devname" is meant to be used for single-instance devices with a static dev_t, never for things like zramX. It will not do anything useful here, it does nothing really without a statically assigned dev_t, and it should not be used for devices of this kind anyway.
