- fifo-pipe-reuse-xxx_fifo_fops-for-xxx_pipe_fops.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     fifo/pipe: reuse xxx_fifo_fops for xxx_pipe_fops
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     fifo-pipe-reuse-xxx_fifo_fops-for-xxx_pipe_fops.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

Subject: fifo/pipe: reuse xxx_fifo_fops for xxx_pipe_fops
From: Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@googlemail.com>

I noticed that read/write/rdwr_pipe_fops are (1) const and
(2) exactly identical to xxx_fifo_fops, which are also const.

Use the same struct file_operations objects for ->f_op of pipes and fifos.

Size difference:
