Subject: x86/mce: don't use [delayed_]work_pending()
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4d899be584d4b4c5d6b49d655176b25cebf6ff1a;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

x86/mce: don't use [delayed_]work_pending()

There's no need to test whether a (delayed) work item in pending
before queueing, flushing or cancelling it.  Most uses are unnecessary
and quite a few of them are buggy.

Remove unnecessary pending tests from x86/mce.  Only compile tested.

v2: Local var work removed from mce_schedule_work() as suggested by
    Borislav.
