[PATCH v2 5/6] ath9k: simplify tx locking

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

 



Instead of releasing and taking back the lock over and over again in the
tx path, hold the lock a bit longer, requiring much fewer lock/unlock pairs.
This makes locking much easier to review and should not have any noticeable
performance/latency impact.
