[PATCH -next 0/4] fs/buffer: misc optimizations
Posted by Davidlohr Bueso 7 months, 1 week ago
Hi,

Four small patches - the first could be sent to Linus for v6.15 considering
it is a missing nonblocking lookup conversion in the getblk slowpath I
had missed. The other two patches are small optimizations found while reading
the code, and one rocket science cleanup patch.

Thanks!

Davidlohr Bueso (4):
  fs/buffer: use sleeping lookup in __getblk_slowpath()
  fs/buffer: avoid redundant lookup in getblk slowpath
  fs/buffer: remove superfluous statements
  fs/buffer: optimize discard_buffer()
