[PATCH] timer: Add __sched to msleep() and msleep_interruptible()

From: Yoshihiro YUNOMAE
Date: Mon Nov 11 2013 - 03:13:59 EST


Add __sched to msleep() and msleep_interruptible() for avoiding to show
these functions in WCHAN. If a driver calls msleep() or msleep_interruptible()
in a lot of places, users cannot understand that the driver might sleep which
functions execute msleep() or msleep_interruptible(). So, by applying this
patch, users can confirm the function calling msleep() or msleep_interruptible()
from WCHAN.
