Subject: [PATCH] Add find_get_pages_contig(): contiguous variant of find_get_pages()
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.17-rc4~140^2~1
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ebf43500ef148a380bd132743c3fc530111ac620;p=linux-2.6

[PATCH] Add find_get_pages_contig(): contiguous variant of find_get_pages()

find_get_pages_contig() will break out if we hit a hole in the page cache.
From Andrew Morton, small modifications and documentation by me.
