Subject: [patch V2 7/9] softirq: Replace barrier() with cpu_relax() in tasklet_unlock_wait()
Date: Fri, 04 Dec 2020 18:01:58 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201204170805.430113367@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20201204170151.960336698@linutronix.de

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

A barrier() in a tight loop which waits for something to happen on a remote
CPU is a pointless exercise. Replace it with cpu_relax() which allows HT
siblings to make progress.
