Subject: [PATCH 01/12] sched: Employ sched_change guards
Date: Mon, 06 Oct 2025 12:44:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251006104526.613879143@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20251006104402.946760805@infradead.org
As proposed a long while ago -- and half done by scx -- wrap the
scheduler's 'change' pattern in a guard helper.
