[PATCHv2 15/24] sys_swapon: move setting of swapfilepages near use

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

 



There is no reason I can see to read inode->i_size long before it is
needed. Move its read to just before it is needed, to reduce the
variable lifetime.
