[RFC][PATCH 0/9] latched RB-trees and __module_address()

2015-02-28 Thread Peter Zijlstra
This series is aimed at making __module_address() go fast(er).

On the way there it:
 - annotates and sanitizes module locking
 - introduces the latched RB-tree
 - employs it to make __module_address() go fast

I've build and boot tested this on x86_64 with modules and lockdep enabled.
