[PATCH] xdiff: optimise for no whitespace difference when ignoring whitespace.

From: Dylan Reid <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:49:04
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Invert the order of the memcmp and flag check are done in xdl_recmatch,
as it makes the common case (there is no whitespace difference) faster.
It costs the case where lines are the same length and contain
whitespace differences, but the common case is more than 20% faster.
