[PATCH v2 5/5] mm/slub: simplify __cmpxchg_double_slab() and slab_[un]lock()

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

 



The PREEMPT_RT specific disabling of irqs in __cmpxchg_double_slab()
(through slab_[un]lock()) is unnecessary as bit_spin_lock() disables
preemption and that's sufficient on RT where interrupts are threaded.

That means we no longer need the slab_[un]lock() wrappers, so delete
them and rename the current __slab_[un]lock() to slab_[un]lock().
