[PATCH v2 5/7] arm64: barrier: add fine wait for smp_cond_load_relaxed_timewait()
From: Ankur Arora
Date: Fri May 02 2025 - 04:55:03 EST
Define __smp_cond_timewait_fine for callers which need fine grained
timeout.
To do this, use a narrowing timeout slack, equal to the remaining
duration. This allows us to optimistically wait in WFE until
the remaining duration drops below ARCH_TIMER_EVT_STREAM_PERIOD_US/2.
Once we reach that point, we go into the spin-wait state.
