Re: [PATCH 01/71] arc: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros
From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
Date: 2016-03-20 18:54:56
Also in:
linux-fsdevel
I'm OK with this, but let's not do this as a hundred small patches, OK?
It doesn't help legibility or testing, so let's just do it in one big go.

with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with
bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
