From 25034d7a83cf77667f3d65822484b305d4be6b25 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Tue, 29 Aug 2006 09:15:14 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] exit_io_context: don't disable irqs We don't need to disable irqs to clear current->io_context, it is protected by ->alloc_lock. Even IF it was possible to submit I/O from IRQ on behalf of current this irq_disable() can't help: current_io_context() will re-instantiate ->io_context after irq_enable(). We don't need task_lock() or local_irq_disable() to clear ioc->task. This can't prevent other CPUs from playing with our io_context anyway.
