From e207552e64ea053a33e856828ad7915484911d06 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Will Deacon Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2014 15:36:10 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] locking/mcs: Allow architectures to hook in to contended paths When contended, architectures may be able to reduce the polling overhead in ways which aren't expressible using a simple relax() primitive. This patch allows architectures to hook into the mcs_{lock,unlock} functions for the contended cases only. Reviewed-by: Paul E.
