[PATCH] Revert "NFSv4.2: Change the default KConfig value for READ_PLUS"

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

 



From: Anna Schumaker <Anna.Schumaker@xxxxxxxxxx>

This reverts commit 7fd461c47c6cfab4ca4d003790ec276209e52978.

Unfortunately, it has come to our attention that there is still a bug
somewhere in the READ_PLUS code that can result in nfsroot systems on
ARM to crash during boot.

Let's do the right thing and revert this change so we don't break
people's nfsroot setups.
