Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/6] net/tls: minor micro optimizations

Hi!

This set brings a number of minor code changes from my tree which
don't have a noticeable impact on performance but seem reasonable
nonetheless.

First sk_msg_sg copy array is converted to a bitmap, zeroing that
structure takes a lot of time, hence we should try to keep it
small.

Next two conditions are marked as unlikely, GCC seemed to had
little trouble correctly reasoning about those.

Patch 4 adds parameters to tls_device_decrypted() to avoid
walking structures, as all callers already have the relevant
pointers.

Lastly two boolean members of TLS context structures are
converted to a bitfield.

Jakub Kicinski (6):
  net: sockmap: use bitmap for copy info
  net/tls: mark sk->err being set as unlikely
  net/tls: make allocation failure unlikely
  net/tls: pass context to tls_device_decrypted()
  net/tls: store async_capable on a single bit
  net/tls: store decrypted on a single bit
