[PATCH] kernel/futex.c: Uneeded memory barrier
From: Felipe W Damasio
Date: Fri Sep 12 2003 - 13:20:13 EST
Hi Rusty,
Patch against 2.6-test5.
Kills an unneeded set_current_state after schedule_timeout, since it
already guarantees that the task will be TASK_RUNNING.
Also, when setting the state to TASK_RUNNING, isn't that memory
barrier unneeded? Patch removes this memory barrier too.
If it looks good, please consider applying.
Thanks.
Felipe
