[PATCH 0/3] CMPXCHG config options changes

From: Heiko Carstens
Date: Thu Nov 10 2011 - 09:05:38 EST


While implementing cmpxchg_double() on s390 I realized that we don't
set CONFIG_CMPXCHG_LOCAL besides the fact that we have support for it.
However setting that option will increase the size of struct page by
eight bytes on 64 bit, which we certainly do not want.
Also, it doesn't make sense that a present cpu feature should increase
the size of struct page.
Besides that it looks like the dependency to CMPXCHG_LOCAL is wrong
and that it should depend on CMPXCHG_DOUBLE instead.

Heiko Carstens (3):
mm,slub,x86: decouple size of struct page from CONFIG_CMPXCHG_LOCAL
mm,x86,um: move CMPXCHG_LOCAL config option
mm,x86,um: move CMPXCHG_DOUBLE config option
