Actually, it does yield slightly better code... Look - if you take your patch and replace LRU_LIST | SHRINK_LIST combination with bare SHRINK_LIST (which can't occur right now). Then all transitions turn into flipping a single bit, check in dentry_lru_add() becomes if (!(flags & (SHRINK | LRU)) and dentry_lru_del() -- if (... & SHRINK) return ...; if (... & LRU) return ... It can be done as a followup, anyway - better not mix that with fixes. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
