Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 1/3] rcu: get rid of signed overflow in check_cpu_stall()
Date: Sun,  8 May 2011 06:34:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1304861650-18475-1-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110508133343.GA18287@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Signed integer overflow is undefined by the C standard, so move
calculations to unsigned.
