Subject: Re: [PATCH 2.6.20 14/14] nfnetlink_log: micro-optimization: inst->skb != NULL in __nfulnl_send()
Date: Wed, 14 Feb 2007 12:57:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070214115722.GA28422@rere.qmqm.pl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070212202319.GE28704@rere.qmqm.pl>

Patch updated to apply after a new version of 13/14:

No other function calls __nfulnl_send() with inst->skb == NULL than nfulnl_timer().
