From 9f43e3914dceb0f8191875b3cdf4325b48d0d70a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeremy Kerr Date: Tue, 2 Sep 2008 11:57:09 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/spufs: Fix multiple get_spu_context() Commit 8d5636fbca202f61fdb808fc9e20c0142291d802 introduced a reference count on SPU contexts during find_victim, but this may cause a leak in the reference count if we later find a better contender for a context to unschedule. Change the reference to after we've found our victim context, so we don't do the extra get_spu_context().
