Subject: [PATCH] rbtree: remove unneeded explicit alignment in struct rb_node
Date: Thu,  5 Aug 2021 15:32:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210805133213.700-1-lukas.bulwahn@gmail.com> (raw)

Commit e977145aeaad ("[RBTREE] Add explicit alignment to sizeof(long) for
struct rb_node.") adds an explicit alignment to the struct rb_node due to
some speciality of the CRIS architecture.

The support for the CRIS architecture was removed with commit c690eddc2f3b
("CRIS: Drop support for the CRIS port")

So, remove this now unneeded explicit alignment in struct rb_node as well.

This basically reverts commit e977145aeaad ("[RBTREE] Add explicit
alignment to sizeof(long) for struct rb_node.").

applies cleanly on next-20210804, but only x86 compile-checked.

Michel, Davidlohr, Jesper, David, please ack.

Mete, you might want to re-run your RBT test suite for this change.

Andrew, once acked, please pick this minor cleanup into your tree.
