Commit e977145aeaad ("[RBTREE] Add explicit alignment to sizeof(long) for struct rb_node.") adds an explicit alignment to the struct rb_node due to some speciality of the CRIS architecture. The support for the CRIS architecture was removed with commit c690eddc2f3b ("CRIS: Drop support for the CRIS port") So, remove this now unneeded explicit alignment in struct rb_node as well. This basically reverts commit e977145aeaad ("[RBTREE] Add explicit alignment to sizeof(long) for struct rb_node.").

Michel, Davidlohr, Jesper, David, please ack. Mete, you might want to re-run your RBT test suite for this change. Andrew, once acked, please pick this minor cleanup into your tree. include/linux/rbtree.h | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/linux/rbtree.h b/include/linux/rbtree.h index d31ecaf4fdd3..e9390be1ba67 100644 --- a/include/linux/rbtree.h +++ b/include/linux/rbtree.h @@ -25,8 +25,7 @@ struct rb_node { unsigned long __rb_parent_color; struct rb_node *rb_right; struct rb_node *rb_left; -} __attribute__((aligned(sizeof(long)))); - /* The alignment might seem pointless, but allegedly CRIS needs it */ +}; struct rb_root { struct rb_node *rb_node; -- 2.17.1
