From 9d547c35799a4ddd235f1565cec2fff6c9263504 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Artem Bityutskiy Date: Wed, 21 Mar 2012 22:34:55 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] vfs: remove unused superblock helpers Remove the 'sb_mark_dirty()', 'sb_mark_clean()' and 'sb_is_dirty()' helpers which are not used. I introduced them 2 years and the intention was to make all file-systems use them in order to be able to optimize 'sync_supers()'. However, Al Viro vetoed my patches at the end and asked me to push superblock management down to file-systems and get rid of the 's_dirt' flag completely, as well as kill 'sync_supers()' altogether. Thus, remove the helpers.
