Subject: mm/slub.c: freelist is ensured to be NULL when new_slab() fails
X-Git-Url: http://git.osdn.net/view?a=commitdiff_plain;h=edde82b6df70cf10486d7f1e1611151218e6c316;p=android-x86%2Fkernel.git

mm/slub.c: freelist is ensured to be NULL when new_slab() fails

new_slab_objects() will return immediately if freelist is not NULL.

         if (freelist)
                 return freelist;

One more assignment operation could be avoided.
