Subject: [PATCH v3 21/21] arm64: percpu: Remove _pcp_protect*() wrappers
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 17:17:58 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260904161758.376504-22-mark.rutland@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260904161758.376504-1-mark.rutland@arm.com>
Now that all this_cpu_*() operations are preemptible, there are no users
of _pcp_protect() or _pcp_protect_return().
Remove them both, along with the associated comment regarding
preemption.
