[PATCH v2 2/5] rcu: Remove local_irq_save/restore() in rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler()
Posted by Paul E. McKenney 1 week, 6 days ago
From: Zqiang <qiang.zhang@linux.dev>

The per-CPU rcu_data structure's ->defer_qs_iw field is initialized
by IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARD(), which means that the subsequent invocation of
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() will always be executed with interrupts
disabled.  This commit therefore removes the local_irq_save/restore()
operations from rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() and adds a call to
lockdep_assert_irqs_disabled() in order to enable lockdep to diagnose
mistaken invocations of this function from interrupts-enabled code.
