When adding two bit-field mask values, an OR operation offers higher performance over an arithmetic operation. So, convert such addition to an OR based expression.
Where is the evidence that supports this claim? On the following page I read that there is no performance difference when using a modern CPU: https://cs.stackexchange.com/questions/75811/why-is-addition-as-fast-as-bit-wise-operations-in-modern-processors
Issue identified using orplus.cocci semantic patch script.
Where is that script located? Can it be deleted such that submission of patches similar to this patch stops?
Thanks, Bart.
