From 559569acf94f538b56bd6eead80b439d6a78cdff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 4 Jan 2010 15:09:01 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Adjust force_quiescent_state() locking, step 2 This patch releases rnp->lock after the end of force_quiescent_state()'s switch statement. This is a second step towards prohibiting starting grace periods while force_quiescent_state() is executing, which will reduce the number and complexity of races that force_quiescent_state() is involved in.
