Subject: [PATCH v9 19/26] netfs: Remove netfs_alloc/free_folioq_buffer()
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2026 15:47:36 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260810144746.574036-20-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260810144746.574036-1-dhowells@redhat.com>
Remove netfs_alloc/free_folioq_buffer() as bvecq_alloc_*() and bvecq_put()
should now be used instead.
