| |
Linus, the new submit_bh function provides functionality that is better suited for brw_kiovec to use than generic_make_request.
This patch replaced generic_make_request with submit_bh in brw_kiovec and removed some field initialisation which is no longer required.
patch against 2.4.0-test12-pre8
