[PATCH v2 1/6] shmem: remove check for folio lock on writepage()
Posted by Luis Chamberlain 2 years, 6 months ago
Matthew notes we should not need to check the folio lock
on the writepage() callback so remove it. This sanity check
has been lingering since linux-history days. We remove this
as we tidy up the writepage() callback to make things a bit
clearer.
