[PATCH] init, fix initcall blacklist for modules

Show all headers | View raw

sprint_symbol_no_offset() returns the string "function_name [module_name]"
where [module_name] is not printed for built in kernel functions.  This
means that the initcall blacklisting code will now always fail when
comparing module_init() function names.  This patch resolves the issue by
comparing to the length of the function_name.
