Subject: PARAVIRT_SAVE_FLAGS_IRQ_DISABLE composite callsite
Date: Sun, 25 Feb 2007 01:40:55 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <45E159A7.7060709@goop.org> (raw)

What was the point of this again?  Was it that these two operations are
used so commonly together that its worth having a special type for them,
or is there some correctness issue here?

It seems to me that having it adds a fair amount of fiddley complexity,
and it doesn't gain very much because patching will make each operation
individually fairly efficient.
