Subject: [DCCP] tfrc: Binary search for reverse TFRC lookup
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2.6.19-g2bbf29ac;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[DCCP] tfrc: Binary search for reverse TFRC lookup

This replaces the linear search algorithm for reverse lookup with
binary search.

It has the advantage of better scalability: O(log2(N)) instead of O(N).
This means that the average number of iterations is reduced from 250
(linear search if each value appears equally likely) down to at most 9.
