This works as following CPU-A CPU-B rcu_read_lock() set flag if(flag is set) take heavy lock do job. synchronize_rcu() rcu_read_unlock() take heavy lock. In recent discussion, it's argued that using per-cpu value for this flag just complicates the code because 'set flag' is very rare. This patch changes 'flag' implementation from percpu to atomic_t. This will be much simpler. Signed-off-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki Acked-by: Greg Thelen Cc: Johannes Weiner Cc: Michal Hocko Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro Cc: Ying Han Cc: "Paul E.
