Subject: [PATCH v5 09/10] x86/jump-label: remove support for custom poker
Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2018 05:07:29 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181113130730.44844-10-namit@vmware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181113130730.44844-1-namit@vmware.com>

There are only two types of poking: early and breakpoint based. The use
of a function pointer to perform poking complicates the code and is
probably inefficient due to the use of indirect branches.
