Subject: [PATCH] jbd2: use a better hash function for the revoke table
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2014 10:00:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1414677615-29296-1-git-send-email-tytso@mit.edu> (raw)

The old hash function didn't work well for 64-bit block numbers, and
used undefined (negative) shift right behavior.  Use the generic
64-bit hash function instead.
