The patch titled
mm: write iovec cleanup
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-write-iovec-cleanup.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: mm: write iovec cleanup
From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxx>
Hide some of the open-coded nr_segs tests into the iovec helpers. This is all
to simplify generic_file_buffered_write, because that gets more complex in the
next patch.
