From 64ed1e3e728afb57ba9acb59e69de930ead847d9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shrikanth Hegde Date: Wed, 11 Mar 2026 11:47:09 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] cpuidle: powerpc: avoid double clear when breaking snooze snooze_loop is done often in any system which has fair bit of idle time. So it qualifies for even micro-optimizations. When breaking the snooze due to timeout, TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is cleared twice. Clearing the bit invokes atomics. Avoid double clear and thereby avoid one atomic write. dev->poll_time_limit indicates whether the loop was broken due to timeout. Use that instead of defining a new variable.
