[En-Nut-Discussion] Code optimization

[Dusan Ferbas]

Hi optimizers,

what about to improve also thread switching ? I mean when events are used.

NutThreadRemoveQueue() knows thread pointer. If doubly linked list 
will be used for thread list,
then there is no need to browse the list.
With pointer to previous and to next, it can be easily removed.

If you have 4 threads, then no matter. But what if you are using e.g. 
19 threads ?

Sorry if this was discussed, but I did not find it in the Discussion archives.
