The patch titled Subject: mm/damon/sysfs: remove parameters of damon_sysfs_region_alloc() has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is mm-damon-sysfs-remove-parameters-of-damon_sysfs_region_alloc.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-damon-sysfs-remove-parameters-of-damon_sysfs_region_alloc.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm 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 via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: SeongJae Park <sj@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/damon/sysfs: remove parameters of damon_sysfs_region_alloc() Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2022 22:59:37 +0000 'damon_sysfs_region_alloc()' is always called with zero-filled 'struct damon_addr_range', because the start and end addresses should set by users. Remove unnecessary parameters of the function and simplify the body by using 'kzalloc()'.
