Subject: [PATCH] fs: prefer read_iter over read and write_iter over write
Date: Fri, 20 May 2022 15:51:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220520135103.166972-1-Jason@zx2c4.com> (raw)
Most kernel code prefers read_iter over read and write_iter over write,
yet the read function pointer is tested first. Reverse these so that the
iter function is always used first.
