[PATCH] vmalloc: optimization, cleanup, bugfixes
- reorder 'struct vm_struct' to speedup lookups on CPUS with small cache lines. The fields 'next,addr,size' should be now in the same cache line, to speedup lookups. - One minor cleanup in __get_vm_area_node() - Bugfixes in vmalloc_user() and vmalloc_32_user() NULL returns from __vmalloc() and __find_vm_area() were not tested.
