Subject: seqcount: Provide raw_read_seqcount()
X-Git-Tag: omap-for-v3.17/fixes-against-rc2~152^2~8
X-Git-Url: https://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=pandora-kernel.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=0ea5a520f73ca31abc4c10b6d5bc14a884a0641b

seqcount: Provide raw_read_seqcount()

raw_read_seqcount opens a read critical section of the given seqcount
without any lockdep checking and without checking or masking the
LSB. Calling code is responsible for handling that.

Preparatory patch to provide a NMI safe clock monotonic accessor
function.
