From f64eee7bb2819da5506a2db5b6297612a17eb3f8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Borislav Petkov Date: Sun, 27 Apr 2008 15:38:25 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ide-tape: remove tape->cache_stage Prior to allocating a new pipeline stage, the code checked for the existence of a cached pipeline stage to use. Do away with and stick to normal pipeline stages only.
