Subject: md: remove unused static md_wq workqueue
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e4979f4fac4d6bbe757be50441b45e28e6bf7360;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

md: remove unused static md_wq workqueue

The md_wq workqueue is defined as static and initialized in md_init(),
but it is not used anywhere within md.c.

All asynchronous and deferred work in this file is handled via
md_misc_wq or dedicated md threads.

Fixes: b75197e86e6d3 ("md: Remove flush handling")
