For us, it should not matter much, except: 1. when on A9 with ARM_ERRATA_754327, but we do not enable it on our platforms, 2. it is a generic pattern for busy loops. On other architectures it could mean something (e.g. yield to other hyper-threading CPU). Looks good. Acked-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <k...@kernel.org> Best regards, Krzysztof
