Given the nacks from Peter Ziljstra and Ingo Molnar, I'm changing my mind and dropping this patch from my tree, so please continue to include arch/tile in your tree as you figure out how you want to restructure the overall series. I reviewed the one commit in the linux-tile tree that added new __get_cpu_var uses (kprobes support), and concluded the code can safely use __this_cpu_write etc (and in fact the generic reset_current_kprobe method already does so), so I modified the code not to use __get_cpu_var. So there shouldn't be any new uses from the tile tree after the merge window opens. Their concerns feel particularly relevant to arch/tile since one of the commits queued for the merge window is support for preemption :-) Thanks! -- Chris Metcalf, Tilera Corp. http://www.tilera.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arch" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
