[PATCH 1/4] spi: For controllers that need realtime always use the pump thread

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

 



If a controller specifies that it needs high priority for sending
messages we should always schedule our transfers on the thread.  If we
don't do this we'll do the transfer in the caller's context which
might not be very high priority.
