Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/2] membarrier: Provide register expedited private command
Provide a new command allowing processes to register their intent to use
the private expedited command.
This allows PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and
only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a
process that has registered to use expedited private.
Processes are now required to register before using
MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED, otherwise that command returns EPERM.
[ Runtime testing on the PowerPC architecture would be welcome. ]
