[PATCH -mm 5/5] memcg: use spinlock in page_cgroup instead of bit_spinlock
From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu(a)jp.fujitsu.com> This patch replaces bit_spinlock with spinlock. In general, spinlock has good functinality than bit_spin_lock and we should use it if we have a room for it. In 64bit arch, we have extra 4bytes. Let's use it. expected effects: - use better codes. - tick... 2 Aug 2010 07:03
