Subject: [PATCH] x86/traps: get rid of unnecessary preempt_disable/preempt_enable_no_resched
Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2016 13:50:57 +0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161128075057.7724-1-kuleshovmail@gmail.com> (raw)
Exception handlers which may run on IST stack calls ist_enter() at the
start of execution and ist_exit() in the end. The ist_enter() disables
preemption unconditionally and ist_exit() enables it.
Besides this, such exception handlers do additional unnecessary calls
of preempt_disable() and preempt_enable_no_resched() after/before
ist_enter()/ist_exit(). Let's get rid from them.
