In particular schedule_work() -> queue_work() -> queue_work_on(.cpu = WORK_CPU_UNBOUND) -> __queue_work() if (req_cpu == UNBOUND) cpu = wq_select_unbound_cpu(), which has a Round-Robin 'feature' to detect just such dependencies. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
