Subject: [PATCH] IB/ipoib: optimized the function ipoib_mcast_alloc
Date: Sun, 1 Nov 2015 11:53:49 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1446359029-6261-1-git-send-email-saurabh.truth@gmail.com> (raw)
ipoib_mcast_alloc is called only in atomic context,
hence removing the extra check.
Signed-off-by: Saurabh Sengar <saurabh.truth@gmail.com>

Hi,
Even if in future, if there are some functions expected to call it in normal context(not atomic),
we can pass the GFP_KERNEL or GFP_ATOMIC directly to function call instead of passing 0 and 1,
which later again need to be compared in order to change it to GFP_KERNEL and GFP_ATOMIC.
Please let me know if there are better ways to improve it.
