[PATCH -next v5 1/3] x86/mce: remove redundant fixup type EX_TYPE_COPY
Posted by Tong Tiangen 1 year, 10 months ago 
Since commit 034ff37d3407 ("x86: rewrite '__copy_user_nocache' function")
rewrited __copy_user_nocache() uses EX_TYPE_UACCESS instead of
EX_TYPE_COPY, there is no user for EX_TYPE_COPY, so remove it.

x86/extable: Remove unused fixup type EX_TYPE_COPY

After

  034ff37d3407 ("x86: rewrite '__copy_user_nocache' function")

rewrote __copy_user_nocache() to use EX_TYPE_UACCESS instead of the
EX_TYPE_COPY exception type, there are no more EX_TYPE_COPY users, so
remove it.
