Subject: [PATCH 10/11] block: remove bio_clone() and all references.
Date: Thu, 20 Apr 2017 15:38:50 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <149266673026.27388.11044384829130065082.stgit@noble> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <149266645258.27388.14083229348123176454.stgit@noble>
bio_clone() is no longer used.
Only bio_clone_bioset() or bio_clone_fast().
This is for the best, as bio_clone() used fs_bio_set,
and filesystems are unlikely to want to use bio_clone().
So remove bio_clone() and all references.
This includes a fix to some incorrect documentation.
