[PATCH v6 4/8] kmsg: add additional buffers support to memory class

From: Kazimierz Krosman
Date: Wed Feb 24 2016 - 06:54:15 EST


From: Marcin Niesluchowski <m.niesluchow@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Memory class does not support additional kmsg buffers.

Add additional kmsg buffers support to:
* devnode() callback of "mem" class
* file operations of major "mem" character device
