From ab5fe3ff38ff9653490910cc71dbbedc95a86e41 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Tue, 12 Sep 2017 21:37:23 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] watchdog/hardlockup: Clean up hotplug locking mess All watchdog thread related functions are delegated to the smpboot thread infrastructure, which handles serialization against CPU hotplug correctly. The sysctl interface is completely decoupled from anything which requires CPU hotplug protection. No need to protect the sysctl writes against cpu hotplug anymore. Remove it and add the now required protection to the powerpc arch_nmi_watchdog implementation.
