From: Steffen Klassert Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2012 06:43:21 +0000 (+0200) Subject: padata: Use the online cpumask as the default X-Git-Url: http://git.alex.org.uk padata: Use the online cpumask as the default We use the active cpumask to determine the superset of cpus to use for parallelization. However, the active cpumask is for internal usage of the scheduler and therefore not the appropriate cpumask for these purposes. So use the online cpumask instead.
