Subject: [PATCH] vfs: reduce page fault retry code
Date: Fri, 3 Apr 2009 16:55:03 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090403085503.GC6084@localhost> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090403083559.GB6084@localhost>

find_lock_page_retry() works the same way as find_lock_page()
when retry_flag=0. And their return value handling shall work
(almost) in the same way, or it will already be a bug.

So the !retry_flag special casing can be eliminated.
