[PATCH 01/15] alpha: srmcons: localize spin_lock section

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

 



Scale down spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore exactly to area
where it is needed. Also it makes static checkers happy as code checks
kmalloc() result value exactly after call.
