Subject: SUNRPC: Add the helper function 'rpc_call_null()'
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5e1550d6a2c2dd33ff0ca5febefd8e9c65c6ca1e;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

SUNRPC: Add the helper function 'rpc_call_null()'

Does a NULL RPC call and returns a pointer to the resulting rpc_task. The
call may be either synchronous or asynchronous.
