    ring-buffer: Place duplicate expression into a single function · f6195aa0
    Steven Rostedt authored
    While discussing the strictness of the 80 character limit on the
    Kernel Summit Discussion mailing list, I showed examples that I
    broke that limit slightly with some algorithms. In discussing with
    John Linville, what looked better, I realized that two of the
    80 char breaking culprits were an identical expression.
    
    As a clean up, this patch moves the identical expression into its
    own helper function and that is used instead. As a side effect,
    the offending code is now under the 80 character limit. :-)
    
    This clean up code also changes the expression from
    
    	(A - B) - C  to  A - (B + C)
    
    This makes the code look a little nicer too.
