Commit-ID: 3b6f70fd7dd4e19fc674ec99e389bf0da5589525 Gitweb: http://git.kernel.org/tip/3b6f70fd7dd4e19fc674ec99e389bf0da5589525 Author: Yong Zhang <yong.zhang0@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Tue, 29 May 2012 15:16:01 +0800 Committer: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Tue, 5 Jun 2012 17:27:12 +0200 x86-smp-remove-call-to-ipi_call_lock-ipi_call_unlock ipi_call_lock/unlock() lock resp. unlock call_function.lock. This lock protects only the call_function data structure itself, but it's completely unrelated to cpu_online_mask. The mask to which the IPIs are sent is calculated before call_function.lock is taken in smp_call_function_many(), so the locking around set_cpu_online() is pointless and can be removed.
