Subject: [RFC PATCH 6/7] mm: Remove vmalloc_sync_(un)mappings()
Date:   Fri,  8 May 2020 16:40:42 +0200
Message-Id: <20200508144043.13893-7-joro@8bytes.org>
In-Reply-To: <20200508144043.13893-1-joro@8bytes.org>
References: <20200508144043.13893-1-joro@8bytes.org>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de>

These functions are not needed anymore because the vmalloc and ioremap
mappings are now synchronized when they are created or teared down.

Remove all callers and function definitions.
