Subject: [PATCH 1/2] powerpc/tm: Remove interrupt disable in __switch_to()
Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2013 17:15:14 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1380698115-25841-1-git-send-email-mikey@neuling.org> (raw)
We currently turn IRQs off in __switch_to(0 but this is unnecessary as it's
already disabled in the caller.
This removes the IRQ disable but adds a check to make sure it is really off
in case this changes in future.
