Subject: [git patches] xfs and block fixes for virtually indexed arches
Date: Wed, 16 Dec 2009 04:36:18 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091216043618.GB9104@hera.kernel.org> (raw)

As discussed on linux-arch@ recently, these fixes are necessary for
XFS to work on virtually indexed architectures since otherwise vmalloc'd
pages are not properly flushed from the cache.

Thanks!
 Kyle
