 * I want to remove the default RSS feed, which I can successfully do by adding 
   this in functions.php file.
 * `remove_action( 'wp_head', 'feed_links', 2 );`
    However, It is important for 
   me to use this in a function instead of using directly. For that purpose, I’m
   trying following:
 *     ```
       function remove_rss() {
           remove_action( 'wp_head', 'feed_links', 2 );
       }
       add_action('wp_head', 'remove_rss');
       ```
   
 * but that does not work. I think the reason is the wp_head loads after the feeds
   are loaded in the header. How can I make it load before the header adds the feeds?
   Thanks.
