From 7ded429152e84831f6696585755f318fb351e67f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Piggin Date: Wed, 14 Jun 2017 23:02:41 +1000 Subject: cpuidle: powerpc: no memory barrier after break from idle A memory barrier is not required after the task wakes up, only if we clear the polling flag before waking. The case where we have work to do is the important one, so optimise for it.
