[PATCH v5 3/9] audit: reverse arguments to audit_inode_child

Jeff Layton jlayton at redhat.com
Thu Jul 26 11:21:07 UTC 2012


Most of the callers get called with an inode and dentry in the reverse
order. The compiler then has to reshuffle the arg registers and/or
stack in order to pass them on to audit_inode_child.

Reverse those arguments for a micro-optimization.
