Subject: [PATCH] x86, apm: Make on_cpu0() use workqueue instead of work_on_cpu()
Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2012 18:11:34 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120824011134.GB21325@google.com> (raw)
Make APM schedule a work item on CPU0 instead of using the expensive
work_on_cpu(); hopefully, this is the last user of work_on_cpu() and
we can take out work_on_cpu() in not too distant future.
Tested both paths. Seems to work fine.
