From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2012 21:10:04 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 188/351] net: Use cpu_chill() instead of cpu_relax() Origin: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git/commit?id=005f9cf4461533015d3a1b5ccc5bbdbeeaf7b4bd Retry loops on RT might loop forever when the modifying side was preempted. Use cpu_chill() instead of cpu_relax() to let the system make progress.
