From 4c498796891a26a7283130f367a346096a6ccce7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andre Przywara Date: Tue, 2 Mar 2021 15:43:43 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] nvme: Elaborate on cache maintenance operation in get/set_features At the moment the nvme_get_features() and nvme_set_features() functions carry a (somewhat misleading) comment about missing cache maintenance. As it turns out, nvme_get_features() has no caller at all in the tree, and nvme_set_features' only user doesn't use a DMA buffer. Mention that in the comment, and leave some breadcrumbs for the future, should those functions attract more users.
