Subject: lib/percpu_counter.c: __this_cpu_write() doesn't need to be protected by spinlock
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=64df3071a97f20767f63b88c573791691a855b5c;p=linux-beck.git

lib/percpu_counter.c: __this_cpu_write() doesn't need to be protected by spinlock

__this_cpu_write doesn't need to be protected by spinlock, AS we are doing
per cpu write with preempt disabled.  And another reason to remove
__this_cpu_write outside of spinlock: __percpu_counter_sum is not an
accurate counter.
