Subject: [PATCH -tip] v3 Simplify rcu_pending()/rcu_check_callbacks() API
Date: Sat, 22 Aug 2009 13:56:51 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <125097461311-git-send-email-> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090727181401.GA14120@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

All calls from outside RCU are of the form:

	if (rcu_pending(cpu))
		rcu_check_callbacks(cpu, user);

This is silly, instead we put a call to rcu_pending() in
rcu_check_callbacks(), and then make the outside calls be to
rcu_check_callbacks().  This cuts down on the code a bit and
also gives the compiler a better chance of optimizing.
