Subject[PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 08/18] rcu: remove leg of force_quiescent_state() switch statement
Date
From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Proposed for 2.6.34, not for inclusion.

The comparisons of rsp->gpnum nad rsp->completed in rcu_process_dyntick()
and force_quiescent_state() can be replaced by the much more clear
rcu_gp_in_progress() predicate function. After doing this, it becomes
clear that the RCU_SAVE_COMPLETED leg of the force_quiescent_state()
function's switch statement is almost completely a no-op. A small change
to the RCU_SAVE_DYNTICK leg renders it a complete no-op, after which it
can be removed. Doing so also eliminates the forcenow local variable
from force_quiescent_state().

Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
