Think of it: v = atomic_read(...) w = bh->b_state w &= constant v |= w return v vs. v = atomic_read() branch to l if not equal to 0 w = bh->b_state if w & constant is not 0, branch to l v = 0 return v l: v = 1 return v That short-circuit won't win anything here. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
