    cpu-hotplug: refcount based cpu hotplug · d221938c
    Gautham R Shenoy 提交于
    This patch implements a Refcount + Waitqueue based model for
    cpu-hotplug.
    
    Now, a thread which wants to prevent cpu-hotplug, will bump up a global
    refcount and the thread which wants to perform a cpu-hotplug operation
    will block till the global refcount goes to zero.
    
    The readers, if any, during an ongoing cpu-hotplug operation are blocked
    until the cpu-hotplug operation is over.
