Davidlohr Bueso abc610e01c fs/epoll: avoid barrier after an epoll_wait(2) timeout
Upon timeout, we can just exit out of the loop, without the cost of the
changing the task's state with an smp_store_mb call.  Just exit out of
the loop and be done - setting the task state afterwards will be, of
course, redundant.

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.
