Subject: [PATCH 7.1.y 1/3] futex: Make futex_mm_init() void
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 11:33:08 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260825153310.4065884-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026082406-engaged-statistic-82bb@gregkh>

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit d7b3f52c861f54ba2fff15696d3798277fb4c19f ]

Nothing fails there. Mop up the leftovers of the early version of this,
which did an allocation.

While at it clean up the stubs and the #ifdef comments to make the header
file readable.
