[PATCH 2/6] aio: remove an outdated comment in aio_complete

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



These days we don't treat sync iocbs special in the aio completion code as
they never use it.  Remove the old comment and BUG_ON given that the
current definition of is_sync_kiocb makes it impossible to hit.
iocb to the top of the function.
