Subject: [PATCH] smp: kill unnecessary variable - csd_flags
Date: Mon, 29 Jul 2013 10:29:45 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <51F5D399.3050609@huawei.com> (raw)
We used csd_flags formerly because we allocated csd_data by
kmalloc when "wait == 0". When fail to allocation, we will
fall back to on-stack allocation. "csd_data" might be invalid
after generic_exec_single return.
But now we use per cpu data for single cpu ipi calls, and
csd_data can't fall back to on-stack allocation when "wait == 0".
So csd_flags is unnecessary now. Remove it.
