From 5800043b2488a1c4c6e859af860644d37419d58b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nathan Zimmer Date: Thu, 4 Apr 2013 14:53:25 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: convert cpufreq_driver to using RCU We eventually would like to remove the rwlock cpufreq_driver_lock or convert it back to a spinlock and protect the read sections with RCU. The first step in that direction is to make cpufreq_driver use RCU. I don't see an easy wasy to protect the cpufreq_cpu_data structure with RCU, so I am leaving it with the rwlock for now since under certain configs __cpufreq_cpu_get is a hot spot with 256+ cores.
