From 855a0fc30b70d6ae681badd24d6625f9a9abb787 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2013 00:16:37 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] nohz: Get timekeeping max deferment outside jiffies_lock We don't need to fetch the timekeeping max deferment under the jiffies_lock seqlock. If the clocksource is updated concurrently while we stop the tick, stop machine is called and the tick will be reevaluated again along with uptodate jiffies and its related values.
