Subject: [for-next][PATCH 5/6] ftrace: Narrow down the protected area of graph_lock
Date: Sun, 20 Oct 2013 22:44:34 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131021024630.984692390@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20131021024429.189874455@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0005-ftrace-Narrow-down-the-protected-area-of-graph_lock.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1691 bytes --]

From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@lge.com>

The parser set up is just a generic utility that uses local variables
allocated by the function. There's no need to hold the graph_lock for
this set up.

This also makes the code simpler.
