From 212079cf4ee99e492a57b817e796825d423a30bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ken Chen Date: Sun, 1 May 2005 08:59:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] aio: remove superfluous kiocb member initialization This patch removes superfluous kiocb member initialization in the AIO allocation and deallocation path. For example, in really_put_req(), right before kiocb is returned to slab, 5 variables are reset to NULL. The same variables will be initialized at the kiocb allocation time, so why bother reset them knowing that they will be set to valid data at alloc time? Another example: ki_retry is initialized in __aio_get_req, but is initialized again in io_submit_one.
