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

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Sat Feb 28 2015 - 16:38:37 EST


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.
