From 7c9906ca5e582a773fff696975e312cef58a7386 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Sat, 31 Oct 2015 00:59:01 -0700 Subject: rcu: Don't redundantly disable irqs in rcu_irq_{enter,exit}() This commit replaces a local_irq_save()/local_irq_restore() pair with a lockdep assertion that interrupts are already disabled. This should remove the corresponding overhead from the interrupt entry/exit fastpaths. This change was inspired by the fact that Iftekhar Ahmed's mutation testing showed that removing rcu_irq_enter()'s call to local_ird_restore() had no effect, which might indicate that interrupts were always enabled anyway.
