Subject: [PATCH v2] fix __set_page_dirty_no_writeback() return value
Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2010 11:05:54 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1289444754-29469-1-git-send-email-lliubbo@gmail.com> (raw)
__set_page_dirty_no_writeback() should return true if it actually transitioned
the page from a clean to dirty state although it seems nobody used its return
value now.
Change from v1:
* preserving cacheline optimisation as Andrew pointed out
