ring-buffer: Remove duplicate use of '&' in recursive code A clean up of the recursive protection code changed val = this_cpu_read(current_context); val--; val &= this_cpu_read(current_context); to val = this_cpu_read(current_context); val &= val & (val - 1); Which has a duplicate use of '&' as the above is the same as val = val & (val - 1); Actually, it would be best to remove that line altogether and just add it to where it is used. And Christoph even mentioned that it can be further compacted to just a single line: __this_cpu_and(current_context, __this_cpu_read(current_context) - 1); Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/alpine.DEB.2.11.1503271423580.23114@gentwo.org Suggested-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
