[PATCH] merge dst_discard in & out into one, this decrements the vmlinux image by 21 bytes under i386 arch.

From: rae l <hidden>
Date: 2007-05-28 02:41:31

From: Denis Cheng

thus the definition of dst_discard_in and dst_discard_out is the same,
we can define a dst_discard function and map the _in and _out to it,
this can reduce space in vmlinux.

Uhm, just replace every invocation of dst_discard_in/_out() directly
by dst_discard ... don't add macros for that.

so that, the trival patch changed to this:

because the definition of dst_discard_in and dst_discard_out are the
same, so they merged into one.
