In response to an async related regression James noted: "My theory is that this is an init problem: The assumption in a lot of our code is that async_synchronize_full() waits for everything ... even the domain specific async schedules, which isn't true." ...so make this assumption true. Each domain, including the default one, registers itself on a global domain list when work is scheduled. Once all entries complete it exits that list. Waiting for the list to be empty syncs all in-flight work across all domains. Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Rafael J.
