[PATCH 13/27] block_dev: use blkdev_issue_zerout for hole punches

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

 



This gets us support for non-discard efficient write of zeroes (e.g. NVMe)
and prepares for removing the discard_zeroes_data flag.

Also remove a pointless discard support check, which is done in
blkdev_issue_discard already.
