We have more than hundred callers. I don't think we want to create so much churn just to clean things up a bit without any meaѕurable benefit. And even if you want to clean it up I'd rather keep it away from my iomap/xfs buffered I/O series :) > One option would be to rename this function bio_page_add() so there are > build errors or first add bio_page_add() and mark bio_add_page() > deprecated and allow some short time for transition?

My two new functions should have very few callers even by then, so feel free to just update them as well. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-xfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
