[PATCH 2/5] x86: Convert BUG() to use unreachable()

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

 



Use the new unreachable() macro instead of for(;;);.  When
allyesconfig is built with a GCC-4.5 snapshot on i686 the size of the
text segment is reduced by 3987 bytes (from 6827019 to 6823032).
