[PATCH] block: simplify blksize_bits() implementation

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

 



Convert current looping-based implementation into bit operation,
which can bring improvement for:

1) bitops is more efficient for its arch-level optimization.

2) Given that blksize_bits() is inline, _if_ @size is compile-time
constant, it's possible that order_base_2() _may_ make output
compile-time evaluated, depending on code context and compiler behavior.
