[PATCH 5/5] drm/i915/execlists: Drop promotion on unsubmit

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

 



With the disappearance of NEWCLIENT, we no longer need to provide the
priority boost on preemption in order to prevent repeated gazumping,
and we can remove the dead code.
