Subject: [PATCH v5 12/14] ntfs3: remove legacy ntfs driver support
Date: Sun, 11 Jan 2026 23:03:42 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260111140345.3866-13-linkinjeon@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260111140345.3866-1-linkinjeon@kernel.org>

This patch reverts the following commits that introduced legacy ntfs
driver alias and related support code:

74871791ffa9 ntfs3: serve as alias for the legacy ntfs driver
1ff2e956608c fs/ntfs3: Redesign legacy ntfs support
9b872cc50daa ntfs3: add legacy ntfs file operations
d55f90e9b243 ntfs3: enforce read-only when used as legacy ntfs driver

The legacy ntfs driver has been remade as a new implementation, so the
alias and related codes in ntfs3 are no longer needed.
