Extract the common code to remove a dentry from the lru into a new function dentry_lru_remove(). Two call sites used list_del() instead of list_del_init(). AFAIK the performance of both is the same. dentry_lru_remove() does a list_del_init(). As a result dentry->d_lru is now always empty when a dentry is freed.

This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata. Together with the other patches of this series - it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on <dentry,vfsmount> pairs - it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed - it reduces the overall code size: without patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5321639 858418 715768 6895825 6938d1 vmlinux with patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5320026 858418 715768 6894212 693284 vmlinux This patch: Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

The warning issued by fs/binfmt_flat.c when the format handler is given a non-FLAT and non-script executable is annoying to say the least when working with FDPIC ELF objects. If you build a kernel that supports both FLAT and FDPIC ELFs on no-mmu, every time you execute an FDPIC ELF, the kernel spits out this message. While I understand a lot of newcomers to the no-mmu world screw up generation of FLAT binaries, this warning is not usable for systems that support more than just FLAT.

This is due to the use of the construct: *((long*)dst)++ = lc; Which is no longer legal since casts don't return an lvalue. The solution is to import the implementation from newlib, which is continually autotested together with GCC mainline, and uses the construct: *(long *) dst = lc; dst += 4; With this change, the generated code actually shrinks 76 bytes since gcc notices that it can use autoincrement for the move instruction in CRIS. text data bss dec hex filename 304 0 0 304 130 memset.old.o text data bss dec hex filename 228 0 0 228 e4 memset.o Since this is an import of a file from newlib, I'm not touching the formatting or correcting any checkpatch errors. Note also that even if the two files for the CRIS v10 and CRIS v32 are identical at the moment, it might be possible to tweak the CRIS v32 version. Thus, I'm not yet folding them into the same file, at least not until we've done some research on it.
