Subject: [145/165] [CPUFREQ] revert "[CPUFREQ] remove rwsem lock from CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP call (second call site)"
Date: Fri, 30 Jul 2010 10:16:13 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100730171512.779293161@clark.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100730171550.GA1299@kroah.com
2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Andrej Gelenberg <andrej.gelenberg@udo.edu>
commit accd846698439ba18250e8fd5681af280446b853 upstream.
395913d0b1db37092ea3d9d69b832183b1dd84c5 ("[CPUFREQ] remove rwsem lock
from CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP call (second call site)") is not needed, because
there is no rwsem lock in cpufreq_ondemand and cpufreq_conservative
anymore. Lock should not be released until the work done.
