[PATCH] bcache: Remove nested function from sysfs

From: Matthias Kaehlcke
Date: Fri Oct 06 2017 - 17:35:41 EST


From: Behan Webster <behanw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Replace the use of nested functions where a normal function will
suffice.

Nested functions are not liked by upstream kernel developers in
general. Their use breaks the use of clang as a compiler, and
doesn't make the code any better.

This code now works for both gcc and clang.
