I don't think that can happen. Before we drop the module reference we call sk_alloc() which gets another module reference via its cp->prot argument. If sk_alloc() fails we return with error from can_create() I assume sock->ops won't be used after that. urs - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
