The patch titled vmap: remove needless lock and list in vmap has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was vmap-remove-needless-lock-and-list-in-vmap.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: vmap: remove needless lock and list in vmap From: MinChan Kim <minchan.kim@xxxxxxxxx> vmap's dirty_list is unused. It's for optimizing flushing. but Nick didn't write the code yet. so, we don't need it until time as it is needed. This patch removes vmap_block's dirty_list and codes related to it.
