Re: [PATCH] powerpc: Add Initiate Coprocessor Store Word (icswx) support

Hi Ben,

My only comment (sorry Anton :-) would have been that we could lazily
allocate the spinlock on the first use_cop() ... or do we have that
potentially called in the wrong context ?

I worry what might happen in a threaded app. It would be a strange
thing to do, but the program may call use_cop from two threads at the
same time. In that case you could corrupt the PID/ACOP values
and leak a spinlock of memory I think.
