[BLOCK] remove-kblockd_flush_work.patch

From: crquan
Date: Sun Nov 16 2008 - 04:31:28 EST


From: Cheng Renquan <crquan@xxxxxxxxx>

After many improvements on kblockd_flush_work, it is now identical to
cancel_work_sync, so a direct call to cancel_work_sync is suggested.

The only difference is that cancel_work_sync is a GPL symbol,
so no non-GPL modules anymore.
