[lustre-devel] [PATCH 07/14] lnet: libcfs: simplify task management in tracefile.c

[James Simmons <jsimmons@infradead.org>]

From: Mr NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

The waitqueue, mutex, and two completions are not needed.
We can use kthread_stop/kthread_should_stop to synchronize
shutdown, cmpxchg() to ensure only one task is started, and a simple
wake_up_process() to wake the process.
