I see, the acessor is abstracted via a function.
That seems pointless, and allows you to do things like this, improving the implementation on one set of platforms yet leave others using SMT/multi-core scheduling behind.
It makes a lot more sense to make the implementation consistent and therefore the improvements are seen on every platform. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
