From d82f0b0f6f1a0a25afc288fb7135b1601fe6df18 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2008 16:46:04 -0700 Subject: migrate_timers: add comment, use spinlock_irq() Add the comment to explain why the double lock in migrate_timers() can't deadlock. Change the code to use spinlock_irq() instead of local_irq_disable() + spin_lock().

In fact, looking at the logs, it appears as if it was never used. Remove it.
