[PATCH 2/2] netprio_cgroup: Optimize the priomap copy loop slightly

From: Srivatsa S. Bhat
Date: Tue Sep 11 2012 - 07:23:01 EST


* Check for non-NULL old_priomap outside the loop, since its
not going to change.
* Copy the old_priomap's length to a local variable and use
that for loop control, instead of costly pointer-dereferences.
