From 3eac4abaa69949af0e2f64e5c55ee8a22bbdd3e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kevin Hilman Date: Wed, 7 Apr 2010 11:52:46 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rwsem generic spinlock: use IRQ save/restore spinlocks rwsems can be used with IRQs disabled, particularily in early boot before IRQs are enabled. Currently the spin_unlock_irq() usage in the slow-patch will unconditionally enable interrupts and cause problems since interrupts are not yet initialized or enabled. This patch uses save/restore versions of IRQ spinlocks in the slowpath to ensure interrupts are not unintentionally disabled.
