Subject: [PATCH] vfs: Remove the range_cont writeback mode.
Date: Tue, 14 Oct 2008 12:03:25 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1223966008-6656-4-git-send-email-aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1223966008-6656-3-git-send-email-aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Ext4 was the only user of range_cont writeback mode
and ext4 switched to a different method. So remove
the range_cont mode which is not used in the kernel.
