3.16.58-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Kyle Huey <m...@kylehuey.com> commit af8b3cd3934ec60f4c2a420d19a9d416554f140b upstream. Help the compiler to avoid reevaluating the thread flags for each checked bit by reordering the bit checks and providing an explicit xor for evaluation.
