Subject: [PATCH 16/26] cifs: Use a bvecq for buffering instead of a folioq
Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2026 10:45:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260326104544.509518-17-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260326104544.509518-1-dhowells@redhat.com>
Use a bvecq for internal buffering for crypto purposes instead of a folioq
so that the latter can be phased out.
