From 759d427aa5a9d88a81afd11817cdeb40aea85234 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Mon, 25 May 2009 11:51:00 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: remove unused function __ext4_write_dirty_metadata The __ext4_write_dirty_metadata() function was introduced by commit 0390131b, "ext4: Allow ext4 to run without a journal", but nothing ever used the function, either then or since. So let's remove it and save a bit of space.
