Thomas, Ingo,

Please pull the softirq/mask-v3 branch that can be found at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks.git
softirq/mask-v3

HEAD: e225bb16aa5eb0ab83ddd0de423aca3057b1cfee

(No change since last version, just a rebase against v4.17-rc1 and add acks from Michael Ellerman)

--
The softirq mask and its accessors/mutators have many implementations scattered around many architectures. Most do the same things consisting in a field in a per-cpu struct (often irq_cpustat_t) accessed through per-cpu ops. We can provide instead a generic efficient version that most of them can use. In fact s390 is the only exception because the field is stored in lowcore.

Thanks,
Frederic

PATCH 4/10 softirq: Consolidate default local_softirq_pending() implementations

In reply to Frederic Weisbecker

Consolidate and optimize default softirq mask API implementations. Per-CPU operations are expected to be faster and a few architectures already rely on them to implement local_softirq_pending() and related accessors/mutators. Those will be migrated to the new generic code.

PATCH 10/10 softirq/s390: Move default mutators of overwritten softirq mask to s390

In reply to Frederic Weisbecker

s390 is now the last architecture that entirely overwrites local_softirq_pending() and uses the according default definitions of set_softirq_pending() and or_softirq_pending().

Just move these to s390 to debloat the generic code complexity.
