The patch titled Subject: device-dax/kmem: replace release_resource() with release_mem_region() has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is device-dax-kmem-replace-release_resource-with-release_mem_region.patch This patch should soon appear at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/device-dax-kmem-replace-release_resource-with-release_mem_region.patch and later at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/device-dax-kmem-replace-release_resource-with-release_mem_region.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: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: device-dax/kmem: replace release_resource() with release_mem_region() Towards removing the mode specific @dax_kmem_res attribute from the generic 'struct dev_dax', and preparing for multi-range support, change the kmem driver to use the idiomatic release_mem_region() to pair with the initial request_mem_region(). This also eliminates the need to open code the release of the resource allocated by request_mem_region(). As there are no more dax_kmem_res users, delete this struct member.
