Subject: Remove useless get_driver()/put_driver() calls
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f3ff9247088a0af0c192a28908dab76ff3d8871f;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

Remove useless get_driver()/put_driver() calls

As part of the removal of get_driver()/put_driver(), this patch
(as1512) gets rid of various useless and unnecessary calls in several
drivers.  In some cases it may be desirable to pin the driver by
calling try_module_get(), but that can be done later.
