Subject: [PATCH] Fix bug in RCU torture test
Date: Mon, 5 Dec 2005 16:28:49 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051205105849.GD2385@in.ibm.com> (raw)
While doing some test of RCU torture module, I hit a OOPS in rcu_do_batch,
which was trying to processes callback of a module that was just removed.
This is because we weren't waiting long enough for all callbacks to fire.
Patch below fixes that.
