[PATCH] risc-v: Fix order of IPI enablement vs RCU startup
Posted by Marc Zyngier 2 years, 7 months ago
Conor reports that risc-v tries to enable IPIs before telling the
core code to enable RCU. With the introduction of the mapple tree
as a backing store for the irq descriptors, this results in
a very shouty boot sequence, as RCU is legitimately upset.

Restore some sanity by moving the risc_ipi_enable() call after
notify_cpu_starting(), which explicitly enables RCU on the calling
CPU.

Fixes: 832f15f42646 ("RISC-V: Treat IPIs as normal Linux IRQs")

Thanks.  I was going to send another PR this week anyway, I can just 
pick this up if you want?  Either way I'll look, I've still got a few 
hiccups from trying to clean up my staging bits post-merge but hopefully 
it's not too bad...

RCU no longer chucks the toys at least, and none of the wheels seem to
have fallen off the pram in the process.
