[PATCH v3] mm/zsmalloc: avoid duplicate assignment of prev_class

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

 



In zs_create_pool(), prev_class is assigned (ZS_SIZE_CLASSES - 1)
times. And the prev_class only references to the previous size_class.
So we do not need unnecessary assignement.

This patch assigns *prev_class* when a new size_class structure
is allocated and uses prev_class to check whether the first class
has been allocated.

v1 -> v2:
  - follow Dan Streetman's advise to use prev_class to
    check whether the first class has been allocated
  - follow Minchan Kim's advise to remove uninitialized_var()

v2 -> v3:
  - move *prev_class* definition out of the loop - Dan
