[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The patch titled
     rd: remove ramdisk_set_page_dirty
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     rd-remove-ramdisk_set_page_dirty.patch

This patch was dropped because it is obsolete

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: rd: remove ramdisk_set_page_dirty
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

The generic function __set_page_dirty_buffers called by default by
set_page_dirty appears to be a correct superset of ramdisk_set_page_dirty. 
So remove the specialized ramdisk version.
