Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] loop: drop a stale reference to loop_validate_size()
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 18:03:03 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831100305.695116-2-cui.tao@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260831100305.695116-1-cui.tao@linux.dev>
From: Tao Cui <cuitao@kylinos.cn>
The kerneldoc of loop_set_size() points readers at loop_validate_size(),
which does not exist in the tree. Drop the reference.
