Subject: [PATCH 4/9] time: Update timekeeper structure using a local shadow
Date: Thu, 1 Mar 2012 23:12:43 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1330672368-32290-5-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1330672368-32290-1-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org>
Uses a local shadow structure to update the timekeeper. This
will allow for reduced timekeeper.rlock hold time.
