Subject: llist: llist_add() can use llist_add_batch()
X-Git-Tag: next-20130619~2^2~579
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9c97a21ef287e2c409096d7a39bbe8b731d7be33;p=karo-tx-linux.git

llist: llist_add() can use llist_add_batch()

llist_add(new, head) can simply use llist_add_batch(new, new, head),
no need to duplicate the code.

This obviously uninlines llist_add() and to me this is a win. But we
can make llist_add_batch() inline if this is desirable, in this case
gcc can notice that new_first == new_last if the caller is llist_add().
