Subject: mm/swap_slots.c: don't disable preemption while taking the per-CPU cache
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f07e0f849a921ec8c0b509c8b8030455a2b21f7f;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

mm/swap_slots.c: don't disable preemption while taking the per-CPU cache

get_cpu_var() disables preemption and returns the per-CPU version of the
variable.  Disabling preemption is useful to ensure atomic access to the
variable within the critical section.

In this case however, after the per-CPU version of the variable is
obtained the ->free_lock is acquired.  For that reason it seems the raw
accessor could be used.  It only seems that ->slots_ret should be
retested (because with disabled preemption this variable can not be set
to NULL otherwise).

This popped up during PREEMPT-RT testing because it tries to take
spinlocks in a preempt disabled section.  In RT, spinlocks can sleep.
