[RFC PATCH 06/21] ubifs: Avoid allocating buffer space unnecessarily

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

 



The recompression scratch buffer is only used when the data node is
compressed, and there is no need to allocate it otherwise. So move the
allocation into the branch of the if() that actually makes use of it.
