Subject: [PATCH 5/7] mm: stop passing a writeback_control structure to swap_writeout
Date: Thu, 8 May 2025 07:47:47 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250508054938.15894-6-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250508054938.15894-1-hch@lst.de>
swap_writeout only needs the swap_iocb cookie from the writeback_control
structure, so pass it explicitly.
