drm/i915: Lock out execlist tasklet while peeking inside for busy-stats
Chris Wilson authored
In order to prevent a race condition where we may end up overaccounting
the active state and leaving the busy-stats believing the GPU is 100%
busy, lock out the tasklet while we reconstruct the busy state. There is
no direct spinlock guard for the execlists->port[], so we need to
utilise tasklet_disable() as a synchronous barrier to prevent it, the
only writer to execlists->port[], from running at the same time as the
enable.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
