- * This implementation can be thought of as an application of ticket
- * locking to RCU, with sync_sched_expedited_started and
- * sync_sched_expedited_done taking on the roles of the halves
- * of the ticket-lock word. Each task atomically increments
- * sync_sched_expedited_started upon entry, snapshotting the old value,
- * then attempts to stop all the CPUs. If this succeeds, then each
- * CPU will have executed a context switch, resulting in an RCU-sched
- * grace period. We are then done, so we use atomic_cmpxchg() to
- * update sync_sched_expedited_done to match our snapshot -- but
- * only if someone else has not already advanced past our snapshot.
- *
- * On the other hand, if try_stop_cpus() fails, we check the value
- * of sync_sched_expedited_done. If it has advanced past our
- * initial snapshot, then someone else must have forced a grace period
- * some time after we took our snapshot. In this case, our work is
- * done for us, and we can simply return. Otherwise, we try again,
- * but keep our initial snapshot for purposes of checking for someone
- * doing our work for us.
- *
- * If we fail too many times in a row, we fall back to synchronize_sched().
+ * This implementation can be thought of as an application of sequence
+ * locking to expedited grace periods, but using the sequence counter to
+ * determine when someone else has already done the work instead of for
+ * retrying readers. We do a mutex_trylock() polling loop, but if we fail
+ * too many times in a row, we fall back to synchronize_sched().
