From cb55ed7d958cf4abb58dd1d6e46e09447b5694b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitri Vorobiev <dmitri.vorobiev@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 12 May 2008 17:49:19 +0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/1] [MIPS] Export empty_zero_page as a GPL symbol The empty_zero_page symbol is needed for the ext4 driver and should therefore be exported.
