[PATCH 4.9 032/130] rcu: Remove cond_resched() from Tiny synchronize_sched()

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

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit f466ae66fa6a599f9a53b5f9bafea4b8cfffa7fb upstream.

It is now legal to invoke synchronize_sched() at early boot, which causes
Tiny RCU's synchronize_sched() to emit spurious splats.  This commit
therefore removes the cond_resched() from Tiny RCU's synchronize_sched().

Fixes: 8b355e3bc140 ("rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue")
