For Itanium (and I guess also for ppc64 and sparch64) the performance of write_lock/unlock is the same as spin_lock/unlock. There is at least one case where concurrent reads would be allowed without this patch.
Maybe keep the rwlock_t there? - 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/
