Subject: [Intel-gfx] [CI] drm/i915/gt: Another tweak for flushing the tasklets
Date: Sun, 20 Dec 2020 13:48:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201220134858.10510-1-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> (raw)

tasklet_kill() ensures that we _yield_ the processor until a remote
tasklet is completed. However, this leads to a starvation condition as
being at the bottom of the scheduler's runqueue means that anything else
is able to run, including all hogs keeping the tasklet occupied.
