Subject: [PATCH 08/10] ARC: [plat-eznps] spinlock aware for MTM
From: Noam Camus <noamca@...lanox.com>
This way when we execute "ex" during trying to hold lock we can switch to
other HW thread and utilize the core intead of just spinning on a lock.
We noticed about 10% improvement of execution time with hackbench test.
