Subject: [PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c: Replace yield() call with cond_resched
Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2018 17:45:41 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180320214541.cknrcuercnhfrx2a@debian> (raw)
Remove yield() call, yield() does not guarantee progress, and should not
be used. Cond_resched() is a safer alternative
