Subject: [PATCH] fix cond_resched() fix
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2d7d253548cffdce80f4e03664686e9ccb1b0ed7;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

[PATCH] fix cond_resched() fix

In cond_resched_lock() it calls __resched_legal() before dropping the spin
lock.  __resched_legal() will always finds the preempt_count non-zero and
will prevent the call to __cond_resched().

The attached patch adds a parameter to __resched_legal() with the expected
preempt_count value.
