Subject: [PATCH] lib/kobject_uevent.c: Collapse unnecessary loop nesting (top_kobj)
Date: Wed, 4 Apr 2007 07:39:17 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.0.83.0704040730530.25382@sigma.j-a-k-j.com> (raw)

From: John Anthony Kazos Jr. <jakj@j-a-k-j.com>

Collapses a do..while() loop within an if() to a simple while() loop for 
simplicity and readability.

Signed-off-by: John Anthony Kazos Jr. <jakj@j-a-k-j.com>

I'm sure GCC is able to handle this optimization decently, but there's no 
reason at all for the additional nesting level for the loop.
