Subject: [PATCHv3 5/6] efi_mem_sort: use list_for_each_entry_safe instead
Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2026 15:35:54 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260413203555.1990337-6-rs@ti.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260413203555.1990337-1-rs@ti.com>
From: Randolph Sapp <rs@ti.com>
Use list_for_each_entry_safe and comparisons against the current and
next efi_mem_desc. This reduces the computation required for merging
regions, prevents unnecessary additional iterations of the list, and
requires less temporary values.
