Message-Id: <20080103005001.72C6314D40@wotan.suse.de>
Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2008 01:50:01 +0100 (CET)
From: Andi Kleen <ak@...e.de>
To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org
Subject: [PATCH] [6/20] x86: Remove get_cycles_sync
And replace with nsec_barrier() as needed which has the same effect
of preventing unnecessary speculation around RDTSC.
For the standard gtod() like calls the previous patch already added the
necessary barriers
