Subject: [PATCH] block: fix userspace documentation reference for del_gendisk()
Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2020 14:06:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201117140658.12199-1-mcgrof@kernel.org> (raw)
Commit b5bd357cf8b ("block: add docs for gendisk / request_queue refcount
helpers") has a typo where it references drivers for del_gendisk() when we
instead meant userspace, as the reference is to the userspace experience.
This fixes this.
