From 63ff07beaebef2a82da41cf04053ae88b579226d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yanmin Zhang <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2012 15:48:21 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] intel_idle: remove redundant local_irq_disable() call irq disabling happens earlier in process_32.c:cpu_idle. Basically, cpuidle_state->enter is called, cpu irq is disabled. cpuidle_state->enter would turn on irq when exiting. intel_idle doesn't follow this assumption. Although it doesn't cause real issue, it misleads developers. Remove the call to local_irq_disable() at entry.
