[PATCH 1/2] fbdev/defio: Early-out if page is already enlisted

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

 



Return early if a page is already in the list of dirty pages for
deferred I/O. This can be detected if the page's list head is not
empty. Keep the list head initialized while the page is not enlisted
to make this work reliably.
