[PATCH V2 2/2] Drivers: hv: balloon: Do not post pressure status if interrupted

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

 



When we are posting pressure status, we may get interrupted and handle
the un-balloon operation. In this case just don't post the status as we
know the pressure status is stale.
