From: Hugh Dickins Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2009 01:59:19 +0000 (-0800) Subject: ksm: singly-linked rmap_list X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6514d511dbe5a77b4bdc0a7e26fd679585112e1e;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git ksm: singly-linked rmap_list Free up a pointer in struct rmap_item, by making the mm_slot's rmap_list a singly-linked list: we always traverse that list sequentially, and we don't even lose any prefetches (but should consider adding a few later). Name it rmap_list throughout. Do we need to free up that pointer? Not immediately, and in the end, we could continue to avoid it with a union; but having done the conversion, let's keep it this way, since there's no downside, and maybe we'll want more in future (struct rmap_item is a cache-friendly 32 bytes on 32-bit and 64 bytes on 64-bit, so we shall want to avoid expanding it).
