From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Fri, 8 May 2009 16:52:21 +0000 (+0200) Subject: perf_counter: optimize perf_counter_task_tick() X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7fc23a5380797012e92a9633169440f2f4a21253;p=linux-beck.git perf_counter: optimize perf_counter_task_tick() perf_counter_task_tick() does way too much work to find out there's nothing to do. Provide an easy short-circuit for the normal case where there are no counters on the system.
