The patch titled mm: return boolean from page_is_file_cache() has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-return-boolean-from-page_is_file_cache.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/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: mm: return boolean from page_is_file_cache() From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx> page_is_file_cache() has been used for both boolean checks and LRU arithmetic, which was always a bit weird. Now that page_lru_base_type() exists for LRU arithmetic, make page_is_file_cache() a real predicate function and adjust the boolean-using callsites to drop those pesky double negations.
