From e80ee884ae0e3794ef2b65a18a767d502ad712ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Piggin Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2006 02:15:23 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] mm: micro optimise zone_watermark_ok Having min be a signed quantity means gcc can't turn high latency divides into shifts. There happen to be two such divides for GFP_ATOMIC (ie. networking, ie. important) allocations, one of which depends on the other. Fixing this makes code smaller as a bonus. Shame on somebody (probably me).
