This patchset also removes huge_valid_dev() function because there's no user of this function at all. Once you take this patchset i'll send another patch to remove new_valid_dev() with its last user at all. This patchset received several Acked-by and Reviewed-by from each fs maintainers. Please see the thread. Thanks Bai
