Subject: [patch 3/3] x86: cache_info: Kill the atomic allocation in amd_init_l3_cache()
Date: Sun, 24 Jul 2011 09:46:09 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110723212626.688229918@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20110723212603.517924252@linutronix.de

[-- Attachment #1: x86-amd-nb-kill-atomic-allocation.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 7853 bytes --]

It's not a good reason to allocate memory in the smp function call
just because someone thought it's the most conveniant place.

The AMD L3 data is coupled to the northbridge info by a pointer to the
corresponding north bridge data. So allocating it with the northbridge
data and referencing the northbridge in the cache_info code instead
uses less memory and gets rid of that atomic allocation hack in the
smp function call.
