Subject: [PATCH resend 1/2] be2iscsi: Remove unnecessary synchronize_irq() before free_irq()
Date: Fri,  4 Mar 2016 11:15:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1457086507-5937-1-git-send-email-lars@metafoo.de> (raw)

Calling synchronize_irq() right before free_irq() is quite useless. On one
hand the IRQ can easily fire again before free_irq() is entered, on the
other hand free_irq() itself calls synchronize_irq() internally (in a race
condition free way), before any state associated with the IRQ is freed.

Patch was generated using the following semantic patch:
// <smpl>
@@
expression irq;
@@
-synchronize_irq(irq);
 free_irq(irq, ...);
// </smpl>
