Subject: [PATCH 03/12] remove dead code in pgtable_cache_init
Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2007 13:48:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071015210114.814491529@goop.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20071015204840.074767068@goop.org

[-- Attachment #1: x86-mminit-remove-dead-code.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1514 bytes --]

The conversion from using a slab cache to quicklist left some residual
dead code.

I note that in the conversion it now always allocates a whole page for
the pgd, rather than the 32 bytes needed for a PAE pgd.  Was this
intended?
