Subject: [PATCH RFC] vhost: optimize interrupt enable/disable
Date: Tue, 19 Jul 2011 18:04:34 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110719150434.GA3413@redhat.com> (raw)

As we now only update used ring after enabling
the backend, we can write flags with __put_user:
as that's done on data path, it matters.

Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

It seems an obvious optimization so I queued this up
already.
