Now unit_size is used only once, so use it directly in 'part' calculation. Don't cache sizeof(type) in a variable. While this is a compile-time constant, forcing the type 'int' generates worse code as it leads to additional conversion from 32 to 64 bit type on x86_64. The sizeof() is used only a few times and it does not make the code that harder to read, so use it directly and let the compiler utilize the immediate constants in the context it needs. The .ko code size slightly increases (+50) but further patches will reduce that again. Reviewed-by: Boris Burkov <boris@bur.io> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
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 reStructuredText 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.
