Subject: signals: kill the awful task_rq_unlock_wait() hack
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.35-rc1~162
X-Git-Url: https://openfabrics.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b7b8ff6373d4b910af081f76888395e6df53249d;p=~emulex%2Finfiniband.git

signals: kill the awful task_rq_unlock_wait() hack

Now that task->signal can't go away we can revert the horrible hack added
by ad474caca3e2a0550b7ce0706527ad5ab389a4d4 ("fix for
account_group_exec_runtime(), make sure ->signal can't be freed under
rq->lock").

And we can do more cleanups sched_stats.h/posix-cpu-timers.c later.
