Subject: + percpu-counters-clean-up-percpu_counter_sum_and_set-interface.patch added to -mm tree


The patch titled
     percpu-counters: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set() interface
has been added to the -mm tree.  Its filename is

   a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
   b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
   c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
      reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's

Subject: percpu-counters: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set() interface
From: Mingming Cao <cmm@...ibm.com>

percpu_counter_sum_and_set() and percpu_counter_sum() is the same except
the former update the global counter after accounting.  Since we are
taking the fbc->lock to calculate the precise value of the counter in
percpu_counter_sum() anyway, it should simply set fbc->count too, as the
percpu_counter_sum_and_set() dose.

This patch merges these two interfaces into one.
