Subject: non-rotational USB stick?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256

Hi folks,

Is there some way to make the kernel automatically recognize a
USB stick as a non-rotational device?

(My hope is that the CFQ IOPS mode patch might improve performance
of a USB stick as well :-)


Regards
Harri
