From 43b043e78b876ce27034f167897b57fd2556ad29 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josselin Costanzi Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2012 16:37:05 +0100 Subject: UBI: reduce memory consumption Remove the pre-allocated 'peb_buf2' buffer because we do not really need it. The only reason UBI has it is to check that the data were written correctly. But we do not have to have 2 buffers for this and waste RAM - we can just compare CRC checksums instead. This reduces UBI memory consumption.
