[PATCH][SCSI][resend] Reduce sequential pointer derefs in scsi_error.cand reduce size as well

From: Jesper Juhl
Date: Mon Mar 21 2011 - 15:47:46 EST


This patch reduces the number of sequential pointer derefs in
drivers/scsi/scsi_error.c

This has been submitted a number of times over a couple of years. I
believe this version adresses all comments it has gathered over time.
Please apply or reject with a reason.

The bennefits are:

- makes the code easier to read. Lots of sequential derefs of the same
pointers is not easy on the eye.

- theoretically at least, just dereferencing the pointers once can allow
the compiler to generally slightly faster code, so in theory this could
also be a micro speed optimization.

- reduces size of object file.

- removes some pointless (mostly trailing) whitespace.
