[RFC PATCH 1/5] unisys: replace kthread_create and wake_up_process with kthread_run

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

 



kthread_run calls kthread_create and if the thread is created
it then calls wake_up_process on the corresponding returned
task struct. So the code can be simplified by calling just
kthread_run.
