Subject: [PATCH RT 2/2 v4] list_bl: avoid BUG when the list is not locked
Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2019 15:10:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191113131042.7719-1-ntsironis@arrikto.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <alpine.LRH.2.02.1911121110430.12815@file01.intranet.prod.int.rdu2.redhat.com>

list_bl would crash with BUG() if we used it without locking.
dm-snapshot uses its own locking on realtime kernels (it can't use
list_bl because list_bl uses raw spinlock and dm-snapshot takes other
non-raw spinlocks while holding bl_lock).

To avoid this BUG we deactivate the list debug checks for list_bl on
realtime kernels.

This patch is intended only for the realtime kernel patchset, not for
the upstream kernel.
