From ef4984384172e93cc95e0e8cd102536d67e8a787 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pintu Kumar Date: Tue, 4 May 2021 18:36:48 -0700 Subject: mm/compaction: remove unused variable sysctl_compact_memory The sysctl_compact_memory is mostly unused in mm/compaction.c It just acts as a place holder for sysctl to store .data. But the .data itself is not needed here. So we can get ride of this variable completely and make .data as NULL. This will also eliminate the extern declaration from header file. No functionality is broken or changed this way.
