From 029e332ea717810172e965ec50f942755ad0c58a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: OGAWA Hirofumi Date: Thu, 2 Nov 2006 22:07:06 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] Cleanup read_pages() Current read_pages() assume ->readpages() frees the passed pages. This patch free the pages in ->read_pages(), if those were remaining in the pages_list. So, readpages() just can ignore the remaining pages in pages_list.
