Jan,
This was suggested but we thought it might be safer to keep the
get_cpu/put_cpu pair in case -rt kernels require it (which might be
bullshit, but nobody verified).
Thinking about it, it is bullshit:
- me = get_cpu();
spin_lock(&kvm->requests_lock);
+ me = smp_processor_id();
The -rt kernel cannot substitute a mutex for the spinlock here, since we
are pinned to a single cpu. It will have to use a raw spinlock here.
However, the 'me' variable is completely spurious. It only affects the
statistics gathering, I think we can safely drop it.
