> Commit c1eef220c1760762753b602c382127bfccee226d ("vsock: always call
> vsock_init_tables()") introduced a module_init() function without a
> corresponding module_exit() function.
>
> Modules with an init function can only be removed if they also have an
> exit function. Therefore the vsock module was considered "permanent"
> and could not be removed.
>
> This patch adds an empty module_exit() function so that "rmmod vsock"
> works. No explicit cleanup is required because:
>
> 1. Transports call vsock_core_exit() upon exit and cannot be removed
> while sockets are still alive.
> 2. vsock_diag.ko does not perform any action that requires cleanup by
> vsock.ko.
