Subject: Reduce cost of LocalPop when local queue empty
X-Git-Tag: submit/tizen/20210909.063632~11030^2~8228^2
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=731ea87afa26a50a3410abffe7a53f82bf90234d;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fdotnet%2Fruntime.git

Reduce cost of LocalPop when local queue empty

- Change LocalPop to be parameterless and return the IThreadPoolWorkItem rather than returning a bool and having the IThreadPoolWorkItem in an out arg.
- Refactor LocalPop slightly to have an inlineable upfront check for whether the local queue is empty, and only call the non-inlineable method if there's something that could potentially be popped
