From 2aa79af64263190eec610422b07f60e99a7d230a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Peter Zijlstra (Intel)" Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2015 14:56:36 -0400 Subject: locking/qspinlock: Revert to test-and-set on hypervisors When we detect a hypervisor (!paravirt, see qspinlock paravirt support patches), revert to a simple test-and-set lock to avoid the horrors of queue preemption.
