Subject: Re: [PATCH] Export current_is_keventd() for libphy
Date: Wed, 06 Dec 2006 12:50:26 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <457702E2.3000703@garzik.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <21690.1165426993@redhat.com>

Honestly I wonder if some of these situations really want 
"kill_scheduled_work_unless_it_is_already_running_right_now_if_so_wait_for_it"

Since its during shutdown, usually the task just wants to know that the 
code in the workqueue won't be touching the hardware or data structures 
after <this> point.

	Jeff
