Subject: hrtimer: unlock hrtimer_wakeup
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.25-rc1~1237^2~19
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=37bb6cb4097e29ffee970065b74499cbf10603a3;p=linux-2.6

hrtimer: unlock hrtimer_wakeup

hrtimer_wakeup creates a

  base->lock
    rq->lock

lock dependancy. Avoid this by switching to HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ
which doesn't hold base->lock.

This fully untangles hrtimer locks from the scheduler locks, and allows
hrtimer usage in the scheduler proper.
