Date: Sat, 22 Nov 2014 21:59:57 +0100 From: Pieter Smith <pieter@...sman.nl> To: pieter@...sman.nl Cc: Josh Triplett <josh@...htriplett.org>, Alexander Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>, linux-fsdevel@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org (open list) Subject: [PATCH 2/6] fs: moved kernel_write to fs/read_write kernel_write shares infrastructure with the read_write translation unit but not with the splice translation unit. Grouping kernel_write with the read_write translation unit is more logical. It also paves the way to compiling out the splice group of syscalls for embedded systems that do not need them.
