Subject: [PATCH 4/8] HMM: Remove superflous RCU protection around radix tree lookup
Date: Wed, 14 Mar 2018 12:45:11 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180314194515.1661824-4-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180314194515.1661824-1-tj@kernel.org>
hmm_devmem_find() requires rcu_read_lock_held() but there's nothing
which actually uses the RCU protection. The only caller is
hmm_devmem_pages_create() which already grabs the mutex and does
superflous rcu_read_lock/unlock() around the function.
This doesn't add anything and just adds to confusion. Remove the RCU
protection and open-code the radix tree lookup. If this needs to
become more sophisticated in the future, let's add them back when
necessary.

Hello,
JA(C)rA'me, how do you want to route this patch? If you prefer, I can
route it together with other patches.
Thanks.
