Apart from being a "tremendous" win when it comes to generated machine code (see bloat-o-meter output for x86-64 below) this mainly prepares ground for annotating access to sk_prot with READ_ONCE, so that we don't pepper the code with access annotations and needlessly repeat loads. add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-46 (-46) Function old new delta tls_init 851 805 -46 Total: Before=21063, After=21017, chg -0.22% Signed-off-by: Jakub Sitnicki <jakub@cloudflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
