    [PATCH] tmpfs: shmem fs cleanup · 1956960b
    Andrew Morton authored
    Patch from Hugh Dickins
    
    Remove obsolete shmem_fs_type: we were in some doubt whether safe yet
    to do so, then found 2.5.4 typo changed it from 2.4's "shm" to "shmem"
    ever since: nobody complained, delete it - we're "tmpfs" since 2.4.4.
    Use libfs' simple_empty and simple_sync_file instead of homegrown.
    Remove exit_shmem_fs, it fools people that this might be a module.
    Allow for faint possibility that shm_mnt could not be initialized.
