Subject: [PATCH] mm: multi-gen LRU: Move lru_gen_add_mm() out of IRQ-off region.
Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2022 15:48:30 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221026134830.711887-1-bigeasy@linutronix.de> (raw)

lru_gen_add_mm() has been added within an IRQ-off region in the commit
mentioned below. The other invocations of lru_gen_add_mm() are not within
an IRQ-off region.
The invocation within IRQ-off region is problematic on PREEMPT_RT
because the function is using a spin_lock_t which must not be used
within IRQ-disabled regions.

The other invocations of lru_gen_add_mm() occur while task_struct::alloc_lock
is acquired.
Move lru_gen_add_mm() after interrupts are enabled and before
task_unlock().

Fixes: bd74fdaea1460 ("mm: multi-gen LRU: support page table walks")
