[PATCH 1/1 2.6.20-rc2] MM: ramfs breaks without CONFIG_BLOCK

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Dimitri Gorokhovik <[email protected]>

ramfs doesn't provide the .set_dirty_page a_op, and when the BLOCK
layer is not configured in, 'set_page_dirty' makes a call via a NULL
pointer.
