Subject: [PATCH 12/15] swap: do not send discards as barriers
Date: Wed, 18 Aug 2010 05:29:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100818093502.062639046@bombadil.infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20100818093432.646633424@bombadil.infradead.org

[-- Attachment #1: swap-discard-nobarrier --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1196 bytes --]

The swap code already uses synchronous discards, no need to add I/O barriers.
