[RFC PATCH 2/3] lib/list_batch, x86: Enable list insertion/deletion batching in x86-64

From: Waiman Long
Date: Tue Jan 26 2016 - 11:04:23 EST


System with a large number of CPUs will benefit from the list batching
facility. This patch enables it for x86-64 as 32-bit i386 is not
likely to get much gain from it.
