[PATCH 1/3] cgroup - removing superfluous rcu_read_lock_held check

From: Jiri Olsa
Date: Mon Nov 01 2010 - 15:17:24 EST


hi,
the rcu_dereference_check is defined as

#define rcu_dereference_check(p, c) \
__rcu_dereference_check((p), rcu_read_lock_held() || (c), __rcu)

so the caller does not need to specify rcu_read_lock_held() condition.

wbr,
jirka
