3.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Davidlohr Bueso <[email protected]> commit 32a2750010981216fb788c5190fb0e646abfab30 upstream. After previous cleanups and optimizations, this function is no longer heavily used and we don't have a good reason to keep it. Update the few remaining callers and get rid of it.
