[PATCH 2.6.27.y 08/11] vfs: Remove the range_cont writeback mode.

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

 



From: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 74baaaaec8b4f22e1ae279f5ecca4ff705b28912 upstream.

Ext4 was the only user of range_cont writeback mode and ext4 switched
to a different method. So remove the range_cont mode which is not used
in the kernel.
