Subject: [PATCH 2/5] x86: Convert BUG() to use unreachable()
Date: Fri,  4 Dec 2009 17:44:51 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1259977494-24636-2-git-send-email-ddaney@caviumnetworks.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4B19BAD3.1000808@caviumnetworks.com>

Use the new unreachable() macro instead of for(;;);.  When
allyesconfig is built with a GCC-4.5 snapshot on i686 the size of the
text segment is reduced by 3987 bytes (from 6827019 to 6823032).
