[PATCH 1/2] staging: android: logger: Allocate logs dynamically atboot (v3)

From: Tim Bird
Date: Thu May 10 2012 - 18:11:18 EST


This changes the log initialization to be dynamic, but still
at boot time. These changes are a predecessor to implementing
runtime allocation and freeing of logs, to make the Android logger
less hard-coded.

Change from a fixed set of static log structures, to allocation
at init time into a list. Return proper error numbers on log
allocation failure.
