From 899ac10cc0bdaaee3b908e390bf94d2f1ba5d512 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Sun, 7 Jun 2020 17:40:30 +0200 Subject: initrd: remove the BLKFLSBUF call in handle_initrd BLKFLSBUF used to be overloaded for the ramdisk driver to free the whole ramdisk, which was completely different behavior compared to all other drivers. But this magic overload got removed in commit ff26956875c2 ("brd: remove support for BLKFLSBUF"), so this call is entirely pointless now.
