2 * Routines to manage notifier chains for passing status changes to any
3 * interested routines. We need this instead of hard coded call lists so
4 * that modules can poke their nose into the innards. The network devices
5 * needed them so here they are for the rest of you.

38 * Declared notifiers so far. I can imagine quite a few more chains
39 * over time (eg laptop power reset chains, reboot chain (to clean
40 * device units up), device [un]mount chain, module load/unload chain,
41 * low memory chain, screenblank chain (for plug in modular screenblankers)
42 * VC switch chains (for loadable kernel svgalib VC switch helpers) etc...
