[PATCH v3 01/10] x86/mce/dev-mcelog: Use xchg() to get and clear the flags
Posted by Qiuxu Zhuo 1 month ago
Using xchg() to atomically get and clear the MCE log buffer flags,
streamlines the code and reduces the text size by 20 bytes.

  $ size dev-mcelog.o.*

       text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
       3013	    360	    160	   3533	    dcd	dev-mcelog.o.old
       2993	    360	    160	   3513	    db9	dev-mcelog.o.new

No functional changes intended.
