Subject: [PATCH] make taskstats sending completely independent of delay accounting on/off... 
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.18-rc4~146
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7d94dddd438bcba97db44f120da39bb001b5249f;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

[PATCH] make taskstats sending completely independent of delay accounting on/off status

Complete the separation of delay accounting and taskstats by ignoring the
return value of delay accounting functions that fill in parts of taskstats
before it is sent out (either in response to a command or as part of a task
exit).

Also make delayacct_add_tsk return silently when delay accounting is turned
off rather than treat it as an error.
