[PATCH v2] ext4: hash: simplify kzalloc(n * 1, ...) to kzalloc(n, ...)

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

 



sizeof(char) evaluates to 1. Remove the churn.

Changes in v2:
- change back to kzalloc because sizeof(char) is 1. Nice catch. Thanks.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250315-ext4-hash-kcalloc-v1-1-a9132cb49276@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
