[PATCH v2] tracing/workqueue: Get rid of searching last executedworklet in probe_worklet_complete()

From: Zhaolei
Date: Thu May 21 2009 - 22:42:44 EST


We don't need search workqueue's worklet list for worklet which was latest
executed, instead, we can use a pointer in cpu_workqueue_stats to remember
which worklet was just executed.

Thanks Oleg for pointing it out.

Changelog:
v1->v2: Oleg pointed out that if searching executed workfunc_stats failed
in probe_worklet_execute(), for example, workfunc_stats's memory allocation
failed previously, cpu_workqueue_stats->last_workfunc is not set to correct
value, and it will cause wrong accessing in probe_worklet_complete().
This problem is fixed in v2.
