Compilers like to transform loops like
for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
[use p[i]]
}
into
for (p = p0; p < end; p++) {
...
}
Do it by hand, so that it results in overall simpler loop
and smaller code.
Space savings:
$ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter ../vmlinux-001 ../obj/vmlinux
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 2/1 up/down: 4/-9 (-5)
Function old new delta
proc_tid_base_lookup 17 19 +2
proc_tgid_base_lookup 17 19 +2
proc_pident_lookup 179 170 -9
Note: this trick bloats readdir, so don't do it :-\
