something, feel free to bring it up.

This should not happen, I should have put the module.

No, thanks for the hint. So with this in my tree

| mutex_lock(&func_lock);
| list_for_each_entry(f, &func_list, list) {

| mutex_unlock(&func_lock);
| return uf;
| }
| }
| uf = ERR_PTR(-ENOENT);
| out:
| mutex_unlock(&func_lock);
| return uf;
| }
it should be fine, right?
