From 549381e19cc7874bb15f0e4760c1004d4fe28d8a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Weiner Date: Tue, 29 May 2012 15:06:32 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: bootmem: remove redundant offset check when finally freeing bootmem When bootmem releases an unaligned BITS_PER_LONG pages chunk of memory to the page allocator, it checks the bitmap if there are still unreserved pages in the chunk (set bits), but also if the offset in the chunk indicates BITS_PER_LONG loop iterations already. But since the consulted bitmap is only a one-word-excerpt of the full per-node bitmap, there can not be more than BITS_PER_LONG bits set in it. The additional offset check is unnecessary.
