[PATCH v2 12/14] mac802154: Rename kfree_rcu() to kvfree_rcu_mightsleep()

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

 



The k[v]free_rcu() macro's single-argument form is deprecated.
Therefore switch to the new k[v]free_rcu_mightsleep() variant. The goal
is to avoid accidental use of the single-argument forms, which can
introduce functionality bugs in atomic contexts and latency bugs in
non-atomic contexts.

The callers are holding a mutex so the context allows blocking. Hence
using the API with a single argument will be fine, but use its new name.

There is no functionality change with this patch.
