The patch titled Subject: initramfs: cleanup populate_rootfs has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is initramfs-cleanup-populate_rootfs.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/initramfs-cleanup-populate_rootfs.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/initramfs-cleanup-populate_rootfs.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Subject: initramfs: cleanup populate_rootfs The code for kernels that support ramdisks or not is mostly the same. Unify it by using an IS_ENABLED for the info message, and moving the error message into a stub for populate_initrd_image.
