[RFC patch 11/41] mm/slub: Remove the ULONG_MAX stack trace hackery

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

 



No architecture terminates the stack trace with ULONG_MAX anymore. Remove
the cruft.

While at it remove the pointless loop of clearing the stack array
completely. It's sufficient to clear the last entry as the consumers break
out on the first zeroed entry anyway.
