Subject: [patch 6/6] Create and Use common mempool allocators
Date: Fri, 27 Jan 2006 16:20:01 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1138407601.26088.6.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20060128001539.030809000@localhost.localdomain

plain text document attachment (mempool-use_kzalloc_allocator.patch)
From: Matthew Dobson <colpatch@us.ibm.com>
Subject: [patch 6/6] mempool - Use common mempool kzalloc allocator

This patch changes a mempool user, which is basically just a wrapper around
kzalloc(), to use the common mempool_kmalloc/kfree, rather than its own wrapper
function, removing duplicated code.
