Subject: [GIT PULL] percpu changes for v4.9-rc1
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2016 21:54:09 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161014015409.GL32534@mtj.duckdns.org> (raw)

Hello, Linus.

percpu memory changes for v4.9-rc1.

* Nick improved generic implementations of percpu operations which
  modify the variable and return so that they calculate the physical
  address only once.

* percpu_ref percpu <-> atomic mode switching improvements.  The
  patchset was originally posted about a year ago but fell through the
  crack.

* Misc non-critical fixes.

Thanks.
