From 267eb01a62b1190d0bf87b1ef3b0c9d21cdb2c57 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Mohr Date: Sat, 21 Jul 2007 17:11:25 +0200 Subject: i386: add cpu_relax() to cmos_lock() Add cpu_relax() to cmos_lock() inline function for faster operation on SMT CPUs and less power consumption on others in case of lock contention (which probably doesn't happen too often, so admittedly this patch is not too exciting).
