If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "Paul E. McKenney" commit 49f5903b473c5f63f3b57856d1bd4593db0a2eef upstream. Currently, __srcu_read_lock() cannot be invoked from restricted environments because it contains calls to preempt_disable() and preempt_enable(), both of which can invoke lockdep, which is a bad idea in some restricted execution modes. This commit therefore moves the preempt_disable() and preempt_enable() from __srcu_read_lock() to srcu_read_lock(). It also inserts the preempt_disable() and preempt_enable() around the call to __srcu_read_lock() in do_exit(). Signed-off-by: Paul E.
