Hi all,
This is version two of the patches I originally posted here:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1543347902-21170-1-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com
The only change since v1 is that __preempt_count_dec_and_test() now reloads the need_resched flag if it initially saw that it was set. This resolves the issue spotted by Peter, where an IRQ coming in during the decrement can cause a reschedule to be missed.
Feedback welcome.
Will
