The current_gfp_context() converts a number of PF_MEMALLOC_* per-process flags into the corresponding GFP_* flags for memory allocation. In that function, current->flags is accessed 3 times. That may lead to duplicated access of the same memory location. This is not usually a problem with minimal debug config options on as the compiler can optimize away the duplicated memory accesses. With most of the debug config options on, however, that may not be the case. For example, the x86-64 object size of the __need_fs_reclaim() in a debug kernel that calls current_gfp_context() was 309 bytes. With this patch applied, the object size is reduced to 202 bytes. This is a saving of 107 bytes and will probably be slightly faster too. Use READ_ONCE() to access current->flags to prevent the compiler from possibly accessing current->flags multiple times.
