  [PATCH 1/5] Revert "libnvdimm: band aid btt vs clear poison locking" Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> - 2017-04-14 19:10 +0200

#1623784 — [PATCH 1/5] Revert "libnvdimm: band aid btt vs clear poison locking"

This reverts commit 4aa5615e080a "libnvdimm: band aid btt vs clear
poison locking".

Now that poison list locking has been converted to a spinlock and poison
list entry allocation during i/o has been converted to GFP_NOWAIT,
revert the band-aid that disabled error clearing from btt i/o.
