[PATCH v2 1/5] arch/arc: unwind.c: replace swap function with built-in one

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

 



Replace swap_eh_frame_hdr_table_entries with built-in one, because
swap_eh_frame_hdr_table_entries does a simple byte to byte swap.

Since Spectre mitigations have made indirect function calls more
expensive, and the default simple byte copies swap is implemented
without them, an "optimized" custom swap function is now
a waste of time as well as code.
