From 098849516dd522a343e659740c8f1394a5b7fa69 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Sun, 1 Aug 2010 11:50:12 +0200 Subject: workqueue: explain for_each_*cwq_cpu() iterators for_each_*cwq_cpu() are similar to regular CPU iterators except that it also considers the pseudo CPU number used for unbound workqueues. Explain them.
