[PATCH v4 30/39] unwind_user/deferred: Make unwind deferral requests NMI-safe
Posted by Josh Poimboeuf 6 hours ago
Make unwind_deferred_request() NMI-safe so tracers in NMI context can
call it to get the cookie immediately rather than have to do the fragile
"schedule irq work and then call unwind_deferred_request()" dance.
