Loking at it (arch/i386/lib/iodebug.c):
void * __io_virt_debug(unsigned long x, const char *file, int line)
{
if (x < PAGE_OFFSET) {
printk("io mapaddr 0x%05lx not valid at %s:%d!\n", x, file, line);
return __va(x);
}
return (void *)x;
}
is changed (if you turn off the #if 1), from 1_function_call+1_if+cache
pollution with the function code to nothing (just a cast).
This will make some difference in performance, won't it ?
