From ec733b15a3ef0b5759141a177f8044a2f40c41e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 20:36:06 +0000 Subject: net: snmp mib cleanup There is no point to align or pad mibs to cache lines, they are per cpu allocated with a 8 bytes alignment anyway. This wastes space for no gain. This patch removes __SNMP_MIB_ALIGN__ Since SNMP mibs contain "unsigned long" fields only, we can relax the allocation alignment from "unsigned long long" to "unsigned long" Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
