Ok, makes sense. I guess that also means the might_sleep (I started on that) in invalidate_range_end also needs to be conditional? Or not bother with a might_sleep in invalidate_range_end since you're working on removing the last sleep in there? > > From a quick look through implementations I've only seen spinlocks, and > > one up_read.
