[PATCH] Reduce nr of ptr derefs in fs/jffs2/summary.c

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

 



Here's a small patch to reduce the nr. of pointer dereferences in
fs/jffs2/summary.c

Benefits:
 - micro speed optimization due to fewer pointer derefs
 - generated code is slightly smaller
 - better readability

Please consider applying...
