[PATCH][RESEND] m68knommu: remove is_in_rom() function

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

 



Remove is_in_rom() function. It doesn't actually serve the purpose it was
intended to. If you look at the use of it _access_ok() (which is the only
use of it) then it is obvious that most of memory is marked as access_ok.
No point having is_in_rom() then, so remove it.
