From: Ingo Molnar Date: Fri, 11 Apr 2025 05:40:36 +0000 (+0200) Subject: x86/alternatives: Simplify smp_text_poke_single() by using tp_vec and existing APIs X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c8976ade0c1b4c0629b8a080d712ff402e8343b3;p=users%2Fdwmw2%2Flinux.git x86/alternatives: Simplify smp_text_poke_single() by using tp_vec and existing APIs Instead of constructing a vector on-stack, just use the already available batch-patching vector - which should always be empty at this point. This will allow subsequent simplifications. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Cc: Juergen Gross Cc: "H .
