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

 



From: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit 27630532ef5ead28b98cfe28d8f95222ef91c2b7 upstream.

Since commit d689fe222 (NOHZ: Check for nohz active instead of nohz
enabled) the tick_nohz_switch_to_nohz() function returns because it
checks for the tick_nohz_active flag. This can't be set, because the
function itself sets it.

Undo the change in tick_nohz_switch_to_nohz().
