From 26cf46be954a2dd391d32eeaf7d07c3a953dcc5a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Fri, 13 May 2011 11:51:01 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vfs: micro-optimize acl_permission_check() It's a hot function, and we're better off not mixing types in the mask calculations. The compiler just ends up mixing 16-bit and 32-bit operations, for no good reason. So do everything in 'unsigned int' rather than mixing 'unsigned int' masking with a 'umode_t' (16-bit) mode variable. This, together with the parent commit (47a150edc2ae: "Cache user_ns in struct cred") makes acl_permission_check() much nicer. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- Reading git-format-patch failed
