Hi Peter,
I've introduced a new static_branch_def_true() construct, such that the straight
line path is the true branch, and we patch a jump to get to the false branch.
In order to make jump_label_inc()/dec() work as 'make true'/'make false' with
counting, I've had to update some of the core jump label code. This patchset also
introduces: JUMP_LABEL_INIT_TRUE/FALSE, so that keys should be initialized as:
struct jump_label_key true_key = JUMP_LABEL_INIT_TRUE;
or
struct jump_label_key false_key = JUMP_LABEL_INIT_FALSE;
I think this patch series should address the issues that came up with sched_feat()
implementation.
Thanks,
-Jason
