Wake up another thread synchronously. This method behaves like `notify_one`, except that it hints to the scheduler that the current thread is about to go to sleep, so it should schedule the target thread on the same CPU. This is used by Rust Binder as a performance optimization. When sending a transaction to a different process, we usually know which thread will handle it, so we can schedule that thread for execution next on this CPU for better cache locality.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
