[PATCH] mm/zsmalloc: avoid duplicate assignment of prev_class

From: Mahendran Ganesh
Date: Thu Nov 20 2014 - 08:08:54 EST


In zs_create_pool(), prev_class is assigned (ZS_SIZE_CLASSES - 1)
times. And the prev_class only references to the previous alloc
size_class. So we do not need unnecessary assignement.

This patch modifies *prev_class* to *prev_alloc_class*. And the
*prev_alloc_class* will only be assigned when a new size_class
structure is allocated.
