From 281d150c5f8892f158747594ab49ce2823fd8b8c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2009 13:52:27 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Prepare for synchronization fixes: clean up for non-NO_HZ handling of ->completed counter Impose a clear locking design on non-NO_HZ handling of the ->completed counter. This increases the distance between the RCU and the CPU-hotplug mechanisms. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
