[PATCH] net/sched: cls: Load net classifier modules via alias

From: Michal Koutný
Date: Tue Nov 21 2023 - 12:56:49 EST


The classifier modules may be loaded lazily without user's awareness and
control. Add respective aliases to modules and request them under these
aliases so that modprobe's blacklisting mechanism works also for
classifier modules. (The same pattern exists e.g. for filesystem
modules.)

Original module names remain unchanged.

This is primarily for TC subsystem maintainers where the
request_module() resides but Cc list is large because of touches in
various classifier modules.
