[PATCH net-next v3 14/18] sfc: Remove usage of list iterator for list_add() after the loop body

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In preparation to limit the scope of a list iterator to the list
traversal loop, use a dedicated pointer pointing to the location
where the element should be inserted [1].

Before, the code implicitly used the head when no element was found
when using &new->list. The new 'pos' variable is set to the list head
by default and overwritten if the list exits early, marking the
insertion point for list_add().
