Subject: [PATCH v3 02/14] rwsem: shorter spinlocked section in rwsem_down_failed_common()
Date: Tue,  7 May 2013 06:45:50 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1367934362-10433-3-git-send-email-walken@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1367934362-10433-1-git-send-email-walken@google.com>

This change reduces the size of the spinlocked and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
sections in rwsem_down_failed_common():

- We only need the sem->wait_lock to insert ourselves on the wait_list;
  the waiter node can be prepared outside of the wait_lock.

- The task state only needs to be set to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE immediately
  before checking if we actually need to sleep; it doesn't need to protect
  the entire function.
