[dm-devel] [PATCH 5/9] null_blk: clean up the block device operations

Fri Nov 8 01:56:58 UTC 2019


From: Christoph Hellwig <hch at lst.de>

Remove the pointless stub open and release methods, give the operations
vector a slightly less confusing name, and use normal alignment for the
assignment operators.
