[PATCH 2/5] perf: Annotate lock context on perf_output_begin/end()

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Mon Sep 27 2010 - 06:40:36 EST


perf_output_begin() conditionally grabs RCU read lock in case of
returning 0. Rename and wrap it using __cond_lock() to annotate
this. Although perf_output_begin() returns 0 or error code, IMHO
converting it to boolean will not be a problem since there is no
user takes account of the actual code. Annotate perf_output_end()
also.
