From: Vlastimil Babka Date: Thu, 29 Jul 2021 15:21:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 32/35] mm, slub: make slab_lock() disable irqs with PREEMPT_RT We need to disable irqs around slab_lock() (a bit spinlock) to make it irq-safe. The calls to slab_lock() are nested under spin_lock_irqsave() which doesn't disable irqs on PREEMPT_RT, so add explicit disabling with PREEMPT_RT. We also distinguish cmpxchg_double_slab() where we do the disabling explicitly and __cmpxchg_double_slab() for contexts with already disabled irqs. However these context are also typically spin_lock_irqsave() thus insufficient on PREEMPT_RT. Thus, change __cmpxchg_double_slab() to be same as cmpxchg_double_slab() on PREEMPT_RT.
