[PATCH 3/7] ring-buffer: make moving the tail page a separate function

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Wed May 06 2009 - 23:16:11 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

Ingo Molnar thought the code would be cleaner if we used a function call
instead of a goto for moving the tail page. After implementing this,
it seems that gcc still inlines the result and the output is pretty much
the same. Since this is considered a cleaner approach, might as well
implement it.

[ Impact: code clean up ]
