[PATCH] vhost: fix performance on LE hosts
From: Michael S. Tsirkin
Date: Tue Oct 27 2015 - 05:37:47 EST
commit 2751c9882b947292fcfb084c4f604e01724af804 ("vhost: cross-endian
support for legacy devices") introduced a minor regression: even with
cross-endian disabled, and even on LE host, vhost_is_little_endian is
checking is_le flag so there's always a branch.
To fix, simply check virtio_legacy_is_little_endian first.
