Subject: [PATCH] m68knommu: ColdFire add support for kernel preemption
Date: Thu, 1 May 2008 12:16:29 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200805010216.m412GT6t004096@goober> (raw)
From: Sebastian Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
As the subject says this patch adds the support for kernel preemption
on m68knommu Coldfire. I thing the same changes could be applied to
68360 & 68328 but since I don't have the HW for testing, I don't touch it.
