Subject: [PATCH 4/6] jump_label: jump_label_inc may return before the code is patched
Date: Mon, 05 Dec 2011 20:41:14 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111206014222.808638750@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20111206014110.079874115@goodmis.org

From: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com>

If cpu A calls jump_label_inc() just after atomic_add_return() is
called by cpu B, atomic_inc_not_zero() will return value greater then
zero and jump_label_inc() will return to a caller before jump_label_update()
finishes its job on cpu B.
