Following bug was uncovered by compiling with '-W' flag: CC mm/thrash.o mm/thrash.c: In function âgrab_swap_tokenâ: mm/thrash.c:52: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false Variable token_priority is unsigned, so decrementing first and then checking the result does not work; fixed by reversing the test, patch attached (compile tested only). I am not sure if likely() makes much sense in this new situation, but I'll let somebody else to make a decision on that.

|
* Improved algorithm to pass token:
|
|
* Each task has a priority which is incremented if it contended
|
|
* for the token in an interval less than its previous attempt.
|
|
* If the token is acquired, that task's priority is boosted to prevent
|
|
* the token from bouncing around too often and to let the task make
|
|
* some progress in its execution.
