The reason why I changed it is the code actually uses pg rather than start_pg in the loop. So it's more comfortable for me to check the pg in the condition. But it's minor, I won't insist it strongly.. :) Thanks, Namhyung >> order = get_count_order(pg->size / ENTRIES_PER_PAGE); >> free_pages((unsigned long)pg->records, order); >> start_pg = pg->next; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
