Subject: [slubllv6 16/17] slub: Not necessary to check for empty slab on load_freelist
Date: Thu, 26 May 2011 13:14:58 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110526181510.602701212@linux.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20110526181442.789868308@linux.com
[-- Attachment #1: goto_load_freelist --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 870 bytes --]
load_freelist is now only branched to only if there are objects available.
So no need to check the object variable for NULL.
