[PATCH 1/8] kernel/fork: Redo ifdefs around task's handling.
From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior
Date: Thu Nov 18 2021 - 09:35:32 EST
The use of ifdef CONFIG_VMAP_STACK is confusing in terms what is
actually happenning and what can happen.
For instance from reading free_thread_stack() it appears that in the
CONFIG_VMAP_STACK case we may receive a non-NULL vm pointer but it may
also be NULL in which case __free_pages() is used to free the stack.
This is however not the case because in the VMAP case a non-NULL pointer
is always returned here.
Since it looks like this might happen, the compiler creates the correct
dead code with the invocation to __free_pages() and everything around
it. Twice.
Add spaces between the ifdef and the identifer to recognize the ifdef
level that we are currently in.
Add the current identifer as a comment behind #else and #endif.
Move the code within free_thread_stack() and alloc_thread_stack_node()
into the relavant ifdef block.
