Subject: [PATCH 1/2] UBI: Call worker functions without work_sem held
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2014 15:26:37 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1410873998-2955-2-git-send-email-richard@nod.at> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1410873998-2955-1-git-send-email-richard@nod.at>
There is no need to call the worker function with work_sem held.
We only need the semaphore to synchronize workers and protect
the work list.
