Subject: [PATCH 4/9] x86/pvops: replace arch_enter_lazy_cpu_mode with arch_start_context_switch
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2009 14:30:13 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <46f892dc1851b60067fcd53b1e1cf3cd8087edcd.1234988621.git.jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1234988621.git.jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1234988621.git.jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>
From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>
Make lazy cpu mode more specific to context switching, so that
it makes sense to do more context-switch specific things in
the callbacks.
