I don't see any PTR_ALIGN uses in crypto/ or drivers/crypto/ that use a bitwise or, just mask + 1, but I believe the effect is the same. Anyway, your choice, but I think using min is clearer. cheers, Joe -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
