Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] sched/fair: Comment some nohz_balancer_kick() kick conditions
Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2019 17:59:44 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190211175946.4961-2-valentin.schneider@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190211175946.4961-1-valentin.schneider@arm.com>
We now have a comment explaining the first sched_domain based NOHZ kick,
so might as well comment them all.
While at it, unwrap a line that fits under 80 characters.
