Subject: [PATCH 2/6] mm: stop passing a writeback_control structure to shmem_writeout
Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2025 07:49:38 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250610054959.2057526-3-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250610054959.2057526-1-hch@lst.de>

shmem_writeout only needs the swap_iocb cookie and the split folio
list.  Pass those explicitly and remove the now unused list member
from struct writeback_control.
