[PATCH 10/17] Remove ineffective optimization

From: <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:54:33
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

From: Michael Haggerty <redacted>

I cannot find a scenario in which this function is called any
significant number of times, so simplify the code by always allocating
an array for return_refs rather than trying to use a stack-allocated
array for small lists.
