[PATCH v2 5/6] md/dm-writecache: Don't request pointer dummy_addr when not required
From: Huaisheng Ye
Date: Wed Jul 25 2018 - 12:30:25 EST
From: Huaisheng Ye <yehs1@xxxxxxxxxx>
Function persistent_memory_claim doesn't need to get local pointer
dummy_addr from direct_access. Using NULL instead of having to pass
in a useless local pointer that caller then just throw away.
