Subject: [PATCH] Remove a couple final references to obsolete verify_area().
Date: Sun, 7 Jan 2007 18:43:41 -0500 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0701071839560.18341@localhost.localdomain> (raw)


  Remove a couple final references to the obsolete verify_area() call,
which was long ago replaced by access_ok().

Signed-off-by: Robert P. J. Day <rpjday@mindspring.com>

  it *appears* that these last two references can be removed, unless
there's something really strange i'm not seeing here.
