Subject: dm raid1: use timer
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc1~1064^2~5
X-Git-Url: http://www.pilppa.org/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a2aebe03be60ae4da03507a00d60211d5e0327c3;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

dm raid1: use timer

This patch replaces the schedule() in the main kmirrord thread with a timer.
The schedule() could introduce an unwanted delay when work is ready to be
processed.

The code instead calls wake() when there's work to be done immediately, and
delayed_wake() after a failure to give a short delay before retrying.
