From fbc854027c91fa2813ae7f9de43cc0b5c1119f41 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lukas Czerner Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2011 18:08:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ext3: remove deprecated oldalloc For a long time now orlov is the default block allocator in the ext3. It performs better than the old one and no one seems to claim otherwise so we can safely drop it and make oldalloc and orlov mount option deprecated.
