Subject: block: ioctl to zero block ranges
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=66ba32dc167202c3cf8c86806581a9393ec7f488;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

block: ioctl to zero block ranges

Introduce a BLKZEROOUT ioctl which can be used to clear block ranges by
way of blkdev_issue_zeroout().
