From 0932997e34bad52353c25756c55ccf97c522ae7c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreea-Cristina Bernat Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2014 16:06:09 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] br_multicast: Replace rcu_assign_pointer() with RCU_INIT_POINTER() The use of "rcu_assign_pointer()" is NULLing out the pointer. According to RCU_INIT_POINTER()'s block comment: "1. This use of RCU_INIT_POINTER() is NULLing out the pointer" it is better to use it instead of rcu_assign_pointer() because it has a smaller overhead. The following Coccinelle semantic patch was used: @@ @@ - rcu_assign_pointer + RCU_INIT_POINTER (..., NULL) Signed-off-by: Andreea-Cristina Bernat Signed-off-by: David S.
