[PATCH] jump_label,x86: use text_poke_smp_batch for entries update

From: Jiri Olsa
Date: Thu Apr 28 2011 - 16:52:59 EST


Changing the jump label update code to use batch processing
for x86 architectures.

Currently each jump label update calls text_poke_smp for each
jump label key entry. Thus one key update ends up calling stop
machine multiple times.

This patch is using text_poke_smp_batch, which is called for
all the key's entries. Ensuring the stop machine is called
only once.

The highest entries count for a single key I found was 20,
thus I set MAX_POKE_PARAMS to 30.

I added arch_jump_label_transform_key function with weak definition
to update all the entries for single key.

Architectures, that will do the batch update in the future can
overload this function as x86 does in the patch. For now they
can stay in current state with no further changes.

I tested this on x86 and s390 archs.

wrb,
jirka
