From 87dcbc0610cb580c8eaf289f52aca3620af825f0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2015 17:45:40 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] sched/core: Simplify INIT_PREEMPT_COUNT As per the following commit: d86ee4809d03 ("sched: optimize cond_resched()") we need PREEMPT_ACTIVE to avoid cond_resched() from working before the scheduler is set up. However, keeping preemption disabled should do the same thing already, making the PREEMPT_ACTIVE part entirely redundant. The only complication is !PREEMPT_COUNT kernels, where PREEMPT_DISABLED ends up being 0. Instead we use an unconditional PREEMPT_OFFSET to set preempt_count() even on !PREEMPT_COUNT kernels.
