Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 1/1] rcu: Remove unused function hlist_bl_del_init_rcu
Date: Fri,  2 Aug 2019 13:37:58 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1564778278-21186-1-git-send-email-1ethanhansen@gmail.com> (raw)

The function hlist_bl_del_init_rcu is declared in rculist_bl.h,
but never used. Remove hlist_bl_del_init_rcu to clean code.

- * The caller must take whatever precautions are necessary (such as
- * holding appropriate locks) to avoid racing with another
- * list-mutation primitive, such as hlist_bl_add_head_rcu() or
- * hlist_bl_del_rcu(), running on this same list.  However, it is
- * perfectly legal to run concurrently with the _rcu list-traversal
- * primitives, such as hlist_bl_for_each_entry_rcu().
