Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/3] ARM: entry: Remove unneeded need_resched() loop
Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2019 18:23:38 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190131182339.9835-3-valentin.schneider@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190131182339.9835-1-valentin.schneider@arm.com>

Since the enabling and disabling of IRQs within preempt_schedule_irq()
is contained in a need_resched() loop, we don't need the outer arch
code loop.
