mn10300: Add missing RCU idle APIs on idle loop

2012-10-12T20:38:54+00:00

commit 5b0753a90b7a98bc613c3767e9263a1a76d4f900 upstream.

In the old times, the whole idle task was considered
as an RCU quiescent state. But as RCU became more and
more successful overtime, some RCU read side critical
section have been added even in the code of some
architectures idle tasks, for tracing for example.

So nowadays, rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() must
be called by the architecture to tell RCU about the part
in the idle loop that doesn't make use of rcu read side
critical sections, typically the part that puts the CPU
in low power mode.

This is necessary for RCU to find the quiescent states in
idle in order to complete grace periods.

Add this missing pair of calls in the mn10300's idle loop.

mn10300/CPU hotplug: Add missing call to notify_cpu_starting()

2012-05-16T01:16:57+00:00

The scheduler depends on receiving the CPU_STARTING notification, without
which we end up into a lot of trouble. So add the missing call to
notify_cpu_starting() in the bringup code.

doc: fix broken references

2011-09-27T16:08:04+00:00

There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.

Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
they were part of.

This patch removes all the module loader hook implementations in the
architecture specific code where the functionality is the same as that
now provided by the recently added default hooks.
