From 9b130ad5bb8255ee8534d92d67e12b2a4887eacb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Dobriyan Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2017 16:14:18 -0700 Subject: treewide: make "nr_cpu_ids" unsigned First, number of CPUs can't be negative number. Second, different signnnedness leads to suboptimal code in the following cases: 1) kmalloc(nr_cpu_ids * sizeof(X)); "int" has to be sign extended to size_t. 2) while (loff_t *pos < nr_cpu_ids) MOVSXD is 1 byte longed than the same MOV. Other cases exist as well. Basically compiler is told that nr_cpu_ids can't be negative which can't be deduced if it is "int".
