From 210e21331fc3a396af640cec652be769d146e49f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Wed, 24 May 2017 10:15:28 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] cpu/hotplug: Use stop_machine_cpuslocked() in takedown_cpu() takedown_cpu() is a cpu hotplug function invoking stop_machine(). The cpu hotplug machinery holds the hotplug lock for write. stop_machine() invokes get_online_cpus() as well. This is correct, but prevents the conversion of the hotplug locking to a percpu rwsem. Use stop_machine_cpuslocked() to avoid the nested call. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Tested-by: Paul E.
