Subject: [PATCH] x86_64: Use cpu_relax in poll loop in GART IOMMU
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=85f9eebccde51e24896f31383f5b70776362e1a6;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

[PATCH] x86_64: Use cpu_relax in poll loop in GART IOMMU

The code waits for the GART to clear the TLB flush bit. Use cpu_relax
in this time to allow hypervisors to yield the CPU in this time.
