In a previous mail, I said that:

You may need to match the use of __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath() with 
the corresponding __pv_queued_spin_unlock(), e.g.

#define queued_spin_unlock queued_spin_unlock
static inline queued_spin_unlock(struct qspinlock *lock)
{
         if (!is_shared_processor())
                 smp_store_release(&lock->locked, 0);
         else
                 __pv_queued_spin_unlock(lock);
}

Otherwise, pv_kick() will never be called.

Maybe PowerPC HMT is different that the shared cpus can still process 
instruction, though slower, that cpu kicking like what was done in kvm 
is not really necessary. If that is the case, I think we should document 
that.

Cheers,
