The patch titled Subject: lib/flex_proportions.c: cleanup __fprop_inc_percpu_max has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is lib-flex_proportionsc-cleanup-__fprop_inc_percpu_max.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/lib-flex_proportionsc-cleanup-__fprop_inc_percpu_max.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/lib-flex_proportionsc-cleanup-__fprop_inc_percpu_max.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Tan Hu <tan.hu@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: lib/flex_proportions.c: cleanup __fprop_inc_percpu_max If the given type has fraction smaller than max_frac/FPROP_FRAC_BASE, the code could be modified to call __fprop_inc_percpu() directly and easier to understand. After this patch, fprop_reflect_period_percpu() will be called twice, and quicky return on pl->period == p->period test, so it would not result to significant downside of performance. Thanks for Jan's guidance.
