[PATCH net-next 1/6] vhost: generalize adding used elem

From: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>
Date: 2019-05-24 08:12:44
Also in: kvm, linux-arm-kernel, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, virtio host (vhost) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, "Michael S. Tsirkin", Jason Wang

Use one generic vhost_copy_to_user() instead of two dedicated
accessor. This will simplify the conversion to fine grain
accessors. About 2% improvement of PPS were seen during vitio-user
txonly test.
