Subject: [PATCH RFC v6 21/21] dept: Unstage wait when tagging a normal sleep wait
Date:   Wed,  4 May 2022 17:17:49 +0900
Message-Id: <1651652269-15342-22-git-send-email-byungchul.park@lge.com>
In-Reply-To: <1651652269-15342-1-git-send-email-byungchul.park@lge.com>
References: <1651652269-15342-1-git-send-email-byungchul.park@lge.com>
Precedence: bulk

Staging a wait and commit have been introduced to handle conditional
sleeps that can be determined in __schedule() whether it actually goes
to sleep or not. With this feature, actual wait tagging is delayed
until __schedule().

Unfortunately, an ambiguity arises when a normal sleep wait that doesn't
require staging and commit, is involved in the middle of handling a
conditional sleep e.g. between prepare_to_wait_*() and __schedule(),
which is a very rare case tho.

So let it give up handling the conditional sleep by unstaging it
unconditionally when a normal sleep wait gets involved, to avoid the
ambiguity.
