The patch titled Subject: nilfs2: add helper functions to delete blocks from dat file has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was nilfs2-add-helper-functions-to-delete-blocks-from-dat-file.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: nilfs2: add helper functions to delete blocks from dat file This adds delete functions for data blocks of metadata files using bitmap based allocator. nilfs_palloc_delete_entry_block() deletes an entry block (e.g. block storing dat entries), and nilfs_palloc_delete_bitmap_block() deletes a bitmap block, respectively. These helpers are intended to be used in the successive change on deallocator of block addresses ("nilfs2: free unused dat file blocks during garbage collection").
