From 627b9fc8f557d09b5762d0ee7ec02b3b3368afbd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Sat, 18 Jun 2011 09:55:39 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Make TINY_RCU also use softirq for RCU_BOOST=n This patch #ifdefs TINY_RCU kthreads out of the kernel unless RCU_BOOST=y, thus eliminating context-switch overhead if RCU priority boosting has not been configured.
