Is it better if I use semaphores and use the functions that have __ and that don't use the spinlock)? It means no extra work for me. __kfifo_get __kfifo_put
Those functions also have this note: * Note that with only one concurrent reader and one concurrent * writer, you don't need extra locking to use these functions. How is this achieved? I read the sources and this is not obvious to me.
