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

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx>

commit be3233fbfcb8f5acb6e3bcd0895c3ef9e100d470 upstream.

Allow the compiler to handle @size as an immediate value or memory
directly rather than allocating a register.
