Subject: [XFS] xfs_bdwrite() does not return errors.
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc1~1147^2~20
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=958d4ec606d4af590f86a601a238613f21e878ee;p=linux-2.6

[XFS] xfs_bdwrite() does not return errors.

xfs_bdwrite() cannot return an error; it only queues buffers to the
delayed write list and as such never encounters anything that can fail.
Mark it void.
