So I'm referring to the 'This is required' wording here: | Subject: [PATCH 14/41] x86: Rename __this_cpu_xxx_# operations to raw_cpu_xxx_# | | This is required now since the core portion expects a different | naming. | | Change the names from __this_cpu_xxxx_# to raw_cpu_xxxx_#. | | Also changes the uses of the x86 percpu primitives in preempt.h. | | This is required now since the core portion expects a different naming. By what is this required - by the previous patch #13? Also, the changelog indicates it's two changes - please split the patch in two if so. (Tejun, please wait for this review to be complete before committing anything.) Thanks, Ingo
