Re: lustre: question about lov_request.c

[Drokin, Oleg]

Hello!

  You are right, set_pga seems to be a dead member. It was alive a once, but somehow not fully removed now,
  so it's safe to drop the whole if and also the struct member itself.
  set_oabufs could be dropped as well.

  Thanks.

Bye,
    Oleg
