Subject: [PATCH v6 02/10] tracing/osnoise: start_kthread: Always check OSN_WORKLOAD
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 17:01:12 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261028220120.4005187-3-crwood@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261028220120.4005187-1-crwood@redhat.com>
We can get here on timerlat with OSN_WORKLOAD cleared via
osnoise_hotplug_workfn().
While we're moving this code, remove the pointless compiler barrier
immediately before returning from a function. Even if it's inlined,
it's not doing anything useful.
