[PATCH 06/10] blame: use DEFINE_LIST_SORT

From
René Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de>
Date
Jul 16, 2022, 16:58 UTC
Message-ID
<11f185bd-0117-7f1f-c97c-19cfb0de1384@web.de>
In-Reply-To
<4d7cd286-398e-215c-f2bd-aa7e8207be4f@web.de>

Build a typed sort function for blame entries using DEFINE_LIST_SORT instead of calling llist_mergesort(). This gets rid of the next pointer accessor functions and their calling overhead at the cost of a slightly increased object text size.

Before: __TEXT __DATA __OBJC others dec hex 24621 56 0 147515 172192 2a0a0 blame.o

With this patch: __TEXT __DATA __OBJC others dec hex 25229 56 0 151702 176987 2b35b blame.o
