Subject: [PATCH 1/2] async: Handle kthread_run() return codes.
Date: Tue, 13 Jan 2009 17:43:04 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090113174304.2186532c@gondolin> (raw)
If we fail to create the manager thread, fall back to non-fastboot.
If we fail to create an async thread, try again when the manager
thread runs again.
