Subject: [PATCH 3/11] rsxx: Fixes soft-lockup issues during DMAs.
Date: Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:38:26 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130618193826.GD6492@oc6784271780.ibm.com> (raw)

From: Philip J Kelleher <pjk1939@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The workqueue mechanism has been reworked to prevent soft
lockup issues from occuring by adding in mutex sychronization.
