Linked timeout cancellation code is repeated in in io_req_link_next() and io_fail_links(), and they differ in details even though shouldn't. Basing on the fact that there is maximum one armed linked timeout in a link, and it immediately follows the head, extract a function that will check for it and defuse. Justification: - DRY and cleaner - better inlining for io_req_link_next() (just 1 call site now) - isolates linked_timeouts from common path - reduces time under spinlock for failed links - actually less code Signed-off-by: Pavel Begunkov <asml.silence@gmail.com> [axboe: fold in locking fix for io_fail_links()] Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
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.
