From 99a01cdf9d572e91c2805a2b89d459797864e3ca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ross Zwisler Date: Wed, 3 Aug 2016 13:46:15 -0700 Subject: block: remove BLK_DEV_DAX config option The functionality for block device DAX was already removed with commit acc93d30d7d4 ("Revert "block: enable dax for raw block devices"") However, we still had a config option hanging around that was always disabled because it depended on CONFIG_BROKEN. This config option was introduced in commit 03cdadb04077 ("block: disable block device DAX by default") This change reverts that commit, removing the dead config option.
