Re: [PATCH] remove unneeded len variable from SPU strlen code


Patch applied.

Can you please apply?

Get rid of len variable in strlen code.

This does not change the size or speed of the code for -O2 (it does for
-O1), but makes the source a bit simpler to read.

newlib/ChangeLog:

2008-02-11 Patrick Mansfield <patmans@us.ibm.com>

	* libc/machine/spu/strlen.c: Remove the len variable and unneeded
	  calculation of its value.
