The patch titled
Subject: mm/readahead.c: return the value which force_page_cache_readahead() returns
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-readaheadc-return-the-value-which-force_page_cache_readahead-returns.patch
This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged
------------------------------------------------------
From: Chen Gang <gang.chen@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/readahead.c: return the value which force_page_cache_readahead() returns
force_page_cache_readahead() may fail, so let the related upper system
calls know about it by its return value.
For system call fadvise64_64(), ignore return value because fadvise()
shall return success even if filesystem can't retrieve a hint.
