[PATCH 1/2] Subject: vt: selection: allow functions to be called from inside kernel

[Samuel Thibault]

Okash Khawaja, le ven. 29 mars 2019 11:31:03 +0000, a ecrit:
> This patch breaks set_selection() into two functions so that when
> called from kernel, copy_from_user() can be avoided. It also exports
> set_selection() and paste_selection().
> 
> These changes are used the following patch where speakup's selection
> functionality calls into the above functions, thereby doing away with
> parallel implementation.
