Subject: [PATCH 07/10] res_counter: Allow charge failure pointer to be null
Date: Mon,  3 Oct 2011 21:07:09 +0200

List-ID: <linux-kernel.vger.kernel.org>
X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org

So that callers of res_counter_charge() don't have to create and
pass this pointer even if they aren't interested in it.
