Subject: [PATCH -perfbook v2] cpu: make Quick Quiz 3.6 more explicit
Date: Sat, 30 Dec 2023 08:07:24 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1703894844-20798-1-git-send-email-zhouzhouyi@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Zhouyi Zhou <zhouzhouyi@gmail.com>

Rewrite Quick Quiz 3.6 for clarity and explicitness, so that the
firsttime reader know that another choice is CPU 0 sharing a core
with CPU 1.

This change was identified by Chinese version editor Yunjing Li in 
the course of translating the book to Chinese.
