Subject: [PATCH -v5 1/5] x86,smp: move waiting on contended ticket lock out of line
Date: Wed, 6 Feb 2013 15:04:03 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130206150403.006e5294@cuia.bos.redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130206150311.19cd1e52@cuia.bos.redhat.com>
Moving the wait loop for congested loops to its own function allows
us to add things to that wait loop, without growing the size of the
kernel text appreciably.
