Subject: [merged mm-nonmm-stable] async_xor-use-xor_gen.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Thu, 02 Apr 2026 23:42:10 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260403064210.EBC23C4CEF7@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: async_xor: use xor_gen
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
async_xor-use-xor_gen.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Subject: async_xor: use xor_gen
Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2026 07:16:56 +0100
Replace use of the loop around xor_blocks with the easier to use xor_gen
API.
