Subject: [IA64] remove find_thread_for_addr()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e868a55c2a8cb72b66d7137fbcc54b82016e98eb;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[IA64] remove find_thread_for_addr()

find_thread_for_addr() is no longer needed.  It was only used to find
the correct kernel RBS for a given memory address, but since the kernel
RBS is not needed any longer, this function can go away.
