Subject: [PATCH v5 tip/core/rcu 4/9] completion: Replace spin_unlock_wait() with lock/unlock pair
Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2017 09:16:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170815161629.GA14379@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1500934389-14942-4-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

There is no agreed-upon definition of spin_unlock_wait()'s semantics,
and it appears that all callers could do just as well with a lock/unlock
pair.  This commit therefore replaces the spin_unlock_wait() call in
completion_done() with spin_lock() followed immediately by spin_unlock().
This should be safe from a performance perspective because the lock
will be held only the wakeup happens really quickly.
