Subject[PATCH tip/core/rcu 34/41] percpu-rwsem: Replace synchronize_sched() with synchronize_rcu()
Date
Now that synchronize_rcu() waits for preempt-disable regions of code
as well as RCU read-side critical sections, synchronize_sched() can be
replaced by synchronize_rcu(). This commit therefore makes this change,
even though it is but a comment.
