Hi Srivatsa,
thanks for the feedback!
@davem - I need you to look at this again. I am not sure about the changes
I do in sparc64_yield().

Something like this should do it then:
/* Idle loop support */
void arch_cpu_idle(void)
{
if (sparc_idle)
(*sparc_idle)();
else
local_irq_enable();
}
I dropped cpu_relax() as this is a simple barrier() which is
part of the generic code (using rmb()).

Yep - I see now.

OK

There are some comments about race-conditions in the commit where they were
added.
I think the out-most pair can be dropped as this is done in generic code but
that the inner ones needs to stay.
I simplified arch_cpu_idle() - former sparc64_yield() based on your comments.
- dropped TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG handling
- dropped smp_mb__after_clear_bit() - this is done in generic code using rmb()
- dropped the out-most while (!need_resched() && !cpu_is_offline(cpu))
- always enable irq on exit (but I am not sure if this is correct)
But I need davem to have a look at this - as I am fooling around in
code that I do not know much about..
So this is *NOT* to be applied.
