Subject: pte_alloc_kernel parameters
Date: Thu, 15 Dec 2005 15:53:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43A19190.76F0.0078.0@novell.com> (raw)

Is there any particular reason why pte_alloc_kernel() has to have
'struct mm_struct*' as its first parameter? Except for a case in parisc
(where NULL gets passed) and another (ill-looking one) in arm26 it is
always &init_mm, and since the function is not inline the compiler can't
eliminate the needless passing of the argument.

Thanks, Jan
