Message-Id: <20061120142720.12685.79394.stgit@warthog.cambridge.redhat.com>
Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2006 14:27:20 +0000
From: David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com>
To: torvalds@...l.org, akpm@...l.org
Cc: dhowells@...hat.com, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org
Subject: [PATCH 3/4] WorkStruct: Merge the pending bit into the wq_data pointer
Reclaim a word from the size of the work_struct by folding the pending bit and
the wq_data pointer together. This shouldn't cause misalignment problems as
all pointers should be at least 4-byte aligned.
