[PATCH 0/6] workqueue: async idle rebinding and cleanup for hotplug

From: Lai Jiangshan
Date: Sat Sep 15 2012 - 04:46:46 EST


Patch1 use async algorithm to replace the synchronous algorithm to rebind
idle workers.

The synchronous algorithm requires 3 hand shakes, it introduces much
complicated.

The new async algorithm does not do any synchronization. it removes
the idle workers from idle_list to ensure the local-wake-up is correct
instead.

Patch2-6 do simple cleanup

Lai Jiangshan (6):
workqueue: async idle rebinding
workqueue: new day don't need WORKER_REBIND for busy rebinding
workqueue: remove WORKER_REBIND
workqueue: rename manager_mutex to assoc_mutex
workqueue: use __cpuinit instead of __devinit for cpu callback
workqueue: use hotcpu_notifier() for workqueue_cpu_down_callback()
