Subject: [PATCH] smp: Fix the comments of smp_call_function_many()
Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2021 11:57:55 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211213035755.73-1-thunder.leizhen@huawei.com> (raw)
As commit a32a4d8a815c ("smp: Run functions concurrently in
smp_call_function_many_cond()") itself says:
"Keep other smp_call_function_many() semantic as it is
today for backward compatibility: the called function is not executed in
this case locally."
It's clear that, the function header comments of smp_call_function_many()
does not need to be changed.
So move the comment about 'scf_flags' to smp_call_function_many_cond(),
and restore the original comments of smp_call_function_many().
