[PATCH 1/2] Ext2: use unlikely to improve the efficiency of the kernel

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

 



From: Wang Shilong <wangsl-fnst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Because the function 'sb_getblk' seldomly fails to return
NULL value. It will be better to use unlikely to optimize it.
