[PATCH 00/10] Use the memalloc_nofs scope API

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

 



This attempt is to remove the use of AOP_FLAG_NOFS and replacing
it with the new scope API of memory allocation memalloc_nofs_save()
and memalloc_nofs_restore().

Since we change to scope based memory allocation, we no longer need
AOP_FLAGS_NOFS parameters and hence this flag was removeed.
The only other parameter is AOP_FLAGS_CONT_EXPAND. Since this is only used
by reiserfs, we can remove that by creating a function within reiserfs.

With all usages of AOP flags removed, address_operations.write_begin()
prototype becomes a little smaller: by removing the flags parameter.
