X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=eea570788ebeb817a5ecb173dafc316779120081;p=linux-beck.git staging/rdma/hfi1: use RCU_INIT_POINTER() when NULLing. It is safe to use RCU_INIT_POINTER() to NULL a pointer, instead of rcu_assign_pointer(). This results in slightly smaller/faster code.
