From 231d06ae826664b83369166449144304859a62fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?J=F6rn=20Engel?= Date: Mon, 20 Mar 2006 21:28:35 -0800 Subject: [NET]: Uninline kfree_skb and allow NULL argument MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit o Uninline kfree_skb, which saves some 15k of object code on my notebook. o Allow kfree_skb to be called with a NULL argument. Subsequent patches can remove conditional from drivers and further reduce source and object size. Signed-off-by: Jörn Engel Signed-off-by: David S.
