Subject: [PATCH] Decrease number of pointer derefs in multipath.c
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.16-rc1~483
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=352d768b19408d3c019a3fa09fd5bfed99a55bc6;p=linux-2.6

[PATCH] Decrease number of pointer derefs in multipath.c

Decrease the number of pointer derefs in drivers/md/multipath.c

Benefits of the patch:
 - Fewer pointer dereferences should make the code slightly faster.
 - Size of generated code is smaller
 - improved readability
