[PATCH] dcache: Deduplicate code that sets up dentry_hashtable

From: Eric Biggers
Date: Wed Sep 23 2015 - 00:58:09 EST


Make both dcache_init_early() and dcache_init() call a new helper
function, dcache_alloc_hashtable(). Also address a small inefficiency by
moving the table length calculation outside of the loop condition. gcc
apparently doesn't do that because it assumes that the memory pointed to
by 'dentry_hashtable' might alias 'd_hash_shift'.
