Re: [PATCH 1/1] powerpc: kvm: Reduce calls to get current->mm by storing the value locally

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

 



I have done a very simple comparison with gdb disassemble:
By applying this patch, there was a reduction in the function size from
882 to 878 instructions.

(It's a resend, due to not having all the correct lists on my previous
mail)
