Subject: [PATCH v2 25/33] x86, dax: replace clear_pmem() with open coded memset + dax_ops->flush
Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2017 19:35:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <149222372003.32363.10078966018095100759.stgit@dwillia2-desk3.amr.corp.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <149222358726.32363.15876405696577002849.stgit@dwillia2-desk3.amr.corp.intel.com>

The clear_pmem() helper simply combines a memset() plus a cache flush.
Now that the flush routine is optionally provided by the dax device
driver we can avoid unnecessary cache management on dax devices fronting
volatile memory.

With clear_pmem() gone we can follow on with a patch to make pmem cache
management completely defined within the pmem driver.
