@@ -75,30 +75,6 @@ To simply add or remove one CPU from a certain cpumask the functions
padata_add_cpu/padata_remove_cpu are used. cpu specifies the CPU to add or
remove and mask is one of PADATA_CPU_SERIAL, PADATA_CPU_PARALLEL.
-If a user is interested in padata cpumask changes, he can register to
-the padata cpumask change notifier::
-
- int padata_register_cpumask_notifier(struct padata_instance *pinst,
- struct notifier_block *nblock);
-
-To unregister from that notifier::
-
- int padata_unregister_cpumask_notifier(struct padata_instance *pinst,
- struct notifier_block *nblock);
-
-The padata cpumask change notifier notifies about changes of the usable
-cpumasks, i.e. the subset of active CPUs in the user supplied cpumask.
-
-Padata calls the notifier chain with::
-
- blocking_notifier_call_chain(&pinst->cpumask_change_notifier,
- notification_mask,
- &pd_new->cpumask);
-
-Here cpumask_change_notifier is registered notifier, notification_mask
-is one of PADATA_CPU_SERIAL, PADATA_CPU_PARALLEL and cpumask is a pointer
-to a struct padata_cpumask that contains the new cpumask information.
-
Actually submitting work to the padata instance requires the creation of a
padata_priv structure::
