Subject: [PATCH] remove list_for_each_rcu()
Date: Fri, 1 Aug 2008 14:11:05 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080801211105.GA14851@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
Hello!
All of the in-tree uses of list_for_each_rcu() have been converted to
list_for_each_entry_rcu(), so list_for_each_rcu() can now be removed.
Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
