[PATCH v2 4/5] mm: page_counters: initialize usage using ATOMIC_LONG_INIT() macro
Posted by Roman Gushchin 1 year, 4 months ago
When a page_counter structure is initialized, there is no need to
use an atomic set operation to initialize usage counters because at
this point the structure is not visible to anybody else.
ATOMIC_LONG_INIT() is what should be used in such cases.
