A couple of revisions ago I specifically asked Gustavo to create these

- sizeof(struct xfs_extent)),
- 0, 0, NULL);
+ struct_size((struct xfs_efd_log_item *)0,
+ efd_format.efd_extents,
+ XFS_EFD_MAX_FAST_EXTENTS),
...these even uglier multiline statements. I was also going to ask for
these kmem cache users to get cleaned up. I'd much rather look at:
xfs_efi_zone = kmem_cache_create("xfs_efi_item",
sizeof_xfs_efi(XFS_EFI_MAX_FAST_EXTENTS), 0);
if (!xfs_efi_zone)
goto the_drop_zone;
even if it means another static inline.
Which doesn't really work with struct_size or rather leads to a mess
like the above as struct_size really wants a variable and not just a
type. Making it really nasty for both allocations and creating slab
caches. I tried to find a workaround for that, but that makes the
compiler unhappy based its inlining heuristics.
Anyway, a lot of the helpers are pretty silly as they duplicate stuff
without cleaning up the underlying mess. I tried to sort much of this
out here, still WIP:

Hi xfs maintainers,
Kindly ping, is there any new progress on this patch series?
Best Regards,
