From 1ff7116624d59b0efd77fa26d50fa68e916ece08 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bart Van Assche Date: Wed, 19 Mar 2025 14:02:22 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fs/procfs: fix the comment above proc_pid_wchan() [ Upstream commit 6287fbad1cd91f0c25cdc3a580499060828a8f30 ] proc_pid_wchan() used to report kernel addresses to user space but that is no longer the case today. Bring the comment above proc_pid_wchan() in sync with the implementation.
