[PATCH] drm/i915: Prefer to reschedule the free_object worker rather than block

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Avoid blocking the kworker by putting back the freed object list if we
cannot immediately take the mutex. We will try again shortly, and flush
the work when desperate.
