Subject: [PATCH 01/10] x86 rwsem: minor cleanups
Date: Mon, 17 May 2010 15:25:45 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1274135154-24082-2-git-send-email-walken@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1274135154-24082-1-git-send-email-walken@google.com>
The only functional change here is that __up_write won't call
call_rwsem_wake anymore if the new rwsem value is >0. This makes
no real difference since call_rwsem_wake would have noticed the
active count being nonzero and done nothing anyway.
Besides that, I clarified a few comments.
Feel free to drop this patch from the series if you don't like it;
nothing else depends on it.
