From 37be2f59d3149b95afaeeeff94edde2c07f165d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Sandeen Date: Thu, 8 Nov 2012 11:22:46 -0500 Subject: ext4: remove ext4_handle_release_buffer() ext4_handle_release_buffer() was intended to remove journal write access from a buffer, but it doesn't actually do anything at all other than add a BUFFER_TRACE point, but it's not reliably used for that either. Remove all the associated dead code.

Since ctx is always a 32-bit CRC, hard coding a size of 4 bytes accomplishes the same thing without the use of VLAIS.
