2 * include/asm-generic/mutex-xchg.h
4 * Generic implementation of the mutex fastpath, based on xchg().
6 * NOTE: An xchg based implementation might be less optimal than an atomic
7 * decrement/increment based implementation. If your architecture
8 * has a reasonable atomic dec/inc then you should probably use
9 * asm-generic/mutex-dec.h instead, or you could open-code an
10 * optimized version in asm/mutex.h.
