    x86/smpboot: Remove udelay(100) when polling cpu_callin_map · 2d99af8e
    Len Brown 提交于
    After the BSP sends INIT/SIPI/SIP to the AP and sees the AP
    in the cpu_initialized_map, it sets the AP loose via the
    cpu_callout_map, and waits for it via the cpu_callin_map.
    
    The BSP polls the cpu_callin_map with a udelay(100)
    and a schedule() in each iteration.
    
    The udelay(100) adds no value.
    
    For example, on my 4-CPU dekstop, the AP finishes
    cpu_callin() in under 70 usec and sets the cpu_callin_mask.
    The BSP, however, doesn't see that setting until over 30 usec
    later, because it was still running its udelay(100)
    when the AP finished.
    
    Deleting the udelay(100) in the cpu_callin_mask polling loop,
    saves from 0 to 100 usec per Application Processor.
