Subject: [PATCH 2/2] KVM: cpu_relax() during spin waiting for reboot
Date: Tue, 21 Sep 2010 19:59:44 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1285091984-7518-3-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1285091984-7518-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com>

It doesn't really matter, but if we spin, we should spin in a more relaxed
manner.  This way, if something goes wrong at least it won't contribute to
global warming.
