[PATCH v3 09/14] cgroup/cpuset: Remove redundant rcu_read_lock/unlock() in spin_lock
Posted by pengdonglin 2 weeks, 2 days ago
From: pengdonglin <pengdonglin@xiaomi.com>

Since commit a8bb74acd8efe ("rcu: Consolidate RCU-sched update-side function definitions")
there is no difference between rcu_read_lock(), rcu_read_lock_bh() and
rcu_read_lock_sched() in terms of RCU read section and the relevant grace
period. That means that spin_lock(), which implies rcu_read_lock_sched(),
also implies rcu_read_lock().

There is no need no explicitly start a RCU read section if one has already
been started implicitly by spin_lock().

Simplify the code and remove the inner rcu_read_lock() invocation.
