Subject: lockref: use arch_mutex_cpu_relax() in CMPXCHG_LOOP()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=491f6f8e5fd9a57aaf03b6d6e3e153f1c27d8a46;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

lockref: use arch_mutex_cpu_relax() in CMPXCHG_LOOP()

Make use of arch_mutex_cpu_relax() so architectures can override the
default cpu_relax() semantics.
This is especially useful for s390, where cpu_relax() means that we
yield() the current (virtual) cpu and therefore is very expensive,
and would contradict the whole purpose of the lockless cmpxchg loop.
