From 408af87a397a8ddef56ad39a79481f592aa1ac1a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jesper Juhl Date: Thu, 4 Nov 2010 21:44:41 +0100 Subject: Clean up relay_alloc_page_array() slightly by using vzalloc rather than vmalloc and memset We can optimize kernel/relay.c::relay_alloc_page_array() slightly by using vzalloc. The patch makes these changes: - use vzalloc instead of vmalloc+memset. - remove redundant local variable 'array'. - declare local 'pa_size' as const. Cuts down nicely on both source and object-code size.
