• 38197ca17   block: Cleanup license notice ... Browse Code »

  Remove the imprecise and sloppy:

  "This files is licensed under the GPL."

  license notice in the top level comment.

  1) The file already contains a SPDX license identifier which clearly
  states that the license of the file is GPL V2 only

  2) The notice resolves to GPL v1 or later for scanners which is just
  contrary to the intent of SPDX identifiers to provide clear and non
  ambiguous license information. Aside of that the value add of this
  notice is below zero,

  Exclude zoned block device members from struct request_queue for
  CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED == n. Avoid breaking the build by only building
  the code that uses these struct request_queue members if
  CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED != n.
