Subject: x86/smpboot: Remove udelay(100) when polling cpu_callin_map
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2d99af8e8fd6c2dea11ab539f7aba69c37b845b4;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

x86/smpboot: Remove udelay(100) when polling cpu_callin_map

After the BSP sends INIT/SIPI/SIP to the AP and sees the AP
in the cpu_initialized_map, it sets the AP loose via the
cpu_callout_map, and waits for it via the cpu_callin_map.

The BSP polls the cpu_callin_map with a udelay(100)
and a schedule() in each iteration.

The udelay(100) adds no value.

For example, on my 4-CPU dekstop, the AP finishes
cpu_callin() in under 70 usec and sets the cpu_callin_mask.
The BSP, however, doesn't see that setting until over 30 usec
later, because it was still running its udelay(100)
when the AP finished.

Deleting the udelay(100) in the cpu_callin_mask polling loop,
saves from 0 to 100 usec per Application Processor.
