Subject: [PATCH v2 09/22] coredump: deduplicate the to_skip flush
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 01:09:26 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260820-work-coredump-sparse-v2-9-ba32dd718c51@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260820-work-coredump-sparse-v2-0-ba32dd718c51@kernel.org>
dump_emit() and dump_emit_page() open-code the same flush of the
accumulated cprm->to_skip. Move it into a helper.
No functional change.
