	You seem to have some issues with tabs vs spaces for indentation
	here.

	Please make this a bit in the sched_flags field that's added in
	the scheduler patch series I sent out.

	Why do you add the yield() here?  yield is pretty much a sign
	for a bug

+void spu_notify_already_active(struct spu_context *ctx)
+{
+	struct spu *spu = ctx->spu;
+	if (!spu)
+		return;
+	spu_switch_notify(spu, ctx);
+}

	Please just call spu_switch_notify directly from the only
	caller.  Also the check for ctx->spu beeing there is not
	required if you look a the caller.


 	*stat = ctx->ops->status_read(ctx);
-	if (ctx->state != SPU_STATE_RUNNABLE)
-		return 1;
+	smp_rmb();


	What do you need the barrier for here?
