commit 0a53565f1886201cc8a8afe9b2619ee297c20955 Author: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Fri Feb 2 00:39:42 2024 +0000 Commit: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Tue Mar 12 16:13:03 2024 +0000 xen: Swap order of actions in the FREE*() macros Wherever possible, it is a good idea to NULL out the visible reference to an object prior to freeing it. The FREE*() macros already collect together both parts, making it easy to adjust. This has a marginal code generation improvement, as some of the calls to the free() function can be tailcall optimised. No functional change.
