Subject: [PATCH 6.1.y 1/2] exit: move core of do_wait() into helper
Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2026 11:48:16 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261021154744.363841-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026102100-lifter-velcro-2a2c@gregkh>
From: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
[ Upstream commit 06a101ca45b296fe951692620b0bc49abf90c368 ]
Rather than have a maze of gotos, put the actual logic in __do_wait()
and have do_wait() loop deal with waitqueue setup/teardown and whether
to call __do_wait() again.
No functional changes intended in this patch.
