The only place the trans_info->alloc list is used is when initializing it, when adding a transaction to it when allocation finishes, and when moving a transaction from that list to the committed list. We can just skip putting a transaction on the allocated list, and add it (rather than move it) to the committed list when it is committed. On additional caveat is that an allocated transaction that's committed without any TREs added will be immediately freed. Because we aren't adding allocated transactions to a list any more, the list links need to be initialized to ensure they're valid at the time list_del() is called for the transaction. Then we can safely eliminate the allocated transaction list. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <elder@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
