This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled random: convert to using fops->write_iter() to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: random-convert-to-using-fops-write_iter.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Fri Jun 17 08:58:56 AM CEST 2022 From: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 19 May 2022 17:43:15 -0600 Subject: random: convert to using fops->write_iter() From: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> commit 22b0a222af4df8ee9bb8e07013ab44da9511b047 upstream. Now that the read side has been converted to fix a regression with splice, convert the write side as well to have some symmetry in the interface used (and help deprecate ->write()).
