Radu Rendec 03c0a9208b kernfs: Improve kernfs_notify() poll notification latency ... kernfs_notify() does two notifications: poll and fsnotify. Originally, both notifications were done from scheduled work context and all that kernfs_notify() did was schedule the work. This patch simply moves the poll notification from the scheduled work handler to kernfs_notify(). The fsnotify notification still needs to be done from scheduled work context because it can sleep (it needs to lock a mutex). If the poll notification is time critical (the notified thread needs to wake as quickly as possible), it's better to do it from kernfs_notify() directly. One example is calling sysfs_notify_dirent() from a hardware interrupt handler to wake up a thread and handle the interrupt in user space.
