From 8477b55ba11a49515b26573a90414b718179c908 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vadim Lobanov Date: Fri, 14 Jul 2006 00:24:01 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] i386: remove redundant might_sleep() in user accessors. On i386, the user space accessor functions copy_from/to_user() both invoke might_sleep(), do a quick sanity check, and then pass the work on to their __copy_from/to_user() counterparts, which again invoke might_sleep(). Given that no actual work happens between these two calls, it is best to eliminate one of the redundant might_sleep()s.
