Subject: slub: free_list() cleanup
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=599870b175987008b5f5c82a70b89f751e12822e;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

slub: free_list() cleanup

free_list looked a bit screwy so here is an attempt to clean it up.

free_list is is only used for freeing partial lists. We do not need to return a
parameter if we decrement nr_partial within the function which allows a
simplification of the whole thing.

The current version modifies nr_partial outside of the list_lock which is
technically not correct. It was only ok because we should be the only user of
this slab cache at this point.
