Optional argument looks nice, at least to me. But hmm.. "cluster" and "batch" describes current kernel implementation, not user visible effect. Usually I suggest to pick up a word from man pages because it describe user visible action. e.g. --discard=freed-pages or --discard=io or --discard=swapon or --discard=once, etc.. But this is not strong opinion. You can ignore it. I don't think I have good English sense. :-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
