From 356cebea1123804e4aa85b43ab39bbd0ac8e667c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Mon, 9 Jan 2006 15:30:20 +0100 Subject: [BLOCK] Kill blk_attempt_remerge() It's a broken interface, it's done way too late. And apparently it triggers slab problems in recent kernels as well (most likely after the generic dispatch code was merged). So kill it, ide-cd is the only user of it.
