From: Dan Williams Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2008 00:59:56 +0000 (-0700) Subject: iop_adma: directly reclaim descriptors on allocation failure X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c7141d005a19d2a0a316b3bf9c170d3bedf07bfd;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git iop_adma: directly reclaim descriptors on allocation failure Force callers that trigger an "out of descriptors" condition to run the cleanup loop directly. Alleviates the requirement to have soft-irqs enabled when polling for a descriptor in async_xor.
