[PATCH v5 14/45] rcu, CPU hotplug: Fix comment referring to stop_machine()

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

 



Don't refer to stop_machine() in the CPU hotplug path, since we are going
to get rid of it. Also, move the comment referring to callback adoption
to the CPU_DEAD case, because that's where it happens now.
