From cf82c798394cd443eed7d91f998b79a63f341e91 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2011 10:30:53 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] block: kill queue_sync_plugs() The original use for this dates back to when we had to track write requests for serializing around barriers. That's not needed anymore, so kill it.
