From b802c0741103aa92251d536c115874d51f802ec8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thago Galesi Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2006 17:38:15 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] Remove unnecessary kmalloc/kfree calls in mtdchar This patch removes repeated calls to kmalloc / kfree in mtd_write / mtd_read functions, replacing them by a single kmalloc / kfree pair.
