Subject: [PATCH] Centralise definitions of sector_t and blkcnt_t
Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2006 03:38:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061204103830.GA3013@parisc-linux.org> (raw)


CONFIG_LBD and CONFIG_LSF are spread into asm/types.h for no particularly
good reason.  Centralising the definition in linux/types.h means that arch
maintainers don't need to bother adding it, as well as fixing the problem
with x86-64 users being asked to make a decision that has absolutely no
effect.  The H8/300 porters seem particularly confused since I'm not aware
of any microcontrollers that need to support 2TB filesystems.
