[PATCH v2 -mm 5/6] scsi: sr avoids useless buffer allocation

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

 



blk_rq_map_kern can handle the stack buffers correctly (avoid DMA
from/to the stack buffers by using the bounce buffer) so we don't need
to complicate the code by allocating just 8 bytes.
