Subject: [PATCH v8 4/5] xen: Mark "xen_nopvspin" parameter obsolete
Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2019 19:16:23 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1571829384-5309-5-git-send-email-zhenzhong.duan@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1571829384-5309-1-git-send-email-zhenzhong.duan@oracle.com>

Map "xen_nopvspin" to "nopvspin", fix stale description of "xen_nopvspin"
as we use qspinlock now.
