3.16.57-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Michael Kerrisk (man-pages)" <[email protected]>

commit 9c87bcf0a31b338dc8a69a5d251a037565a94e13 upstream.

This is an optional patch, to provide a small performance
improvement.  Alter account_pipe_buffers() so that it returns the
new value in user->pipe_bufs. This means that we can refactor
too_many_pipe_buffers_soft() and too_many_pipe_buffers_hard() to
avoid the costs of repeated use of atomic_long_read() to get the
value user->pipe_bufs.
