From fc21c0cff2f425891b28ff6fb6b03b325c977428 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Thu, 14 Nov 2013 14:32:06 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] revert "softirq: Add support for triggering softirq work on softirqs" This commit was incomplete in that code to remove items from the per-cpu lists was missing and never acquired a user in the 5 years it has been in the tree. We're going to implement what it seems to try to archive in a simpler way, and this code is in the way of doing so.
