From: Pengfei Li <lpf.vector@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/vmalloc: modify struct vmap_area to reduce its size Objective --------- The current implementation of struct vmap_area wasted space. After applying this commit, sizeof(struct vmap_area) has been reduced from 11 words to 8 words. Description ----------- 1) Pack "subtree_max_size", "vm" and "purge_list". This is no problem because A) "subtree_max_size" is only used when vmap_area is in "free" tree B) "vm" is only used when vmap_area is in "busy" tree C) "purge_list" is only used when vmap_area is in vmap_purge_list 2) Eliminate "flags". ;Since only one flag VM_VM_AREA is being used, and the same thing can be done by judging whether "vm" is NULL, then the "flags" can be eliminated.
