[dm-devel] [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 5/5] dm table: Remove BUG_ON(in_interrupt())

[Sasha Levin]

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

[ Upstream commit e7b624183d921b49ef0a96329f21647d38865ee9 ]

The BUG_ON(in_interrupt()) in dm_table_event() is a historic leftover from
a rework of the dm table code which changed the calling context.

Issuing a BUG for a wrong calling context is frowned upon and
in_interrupt() is deprecated and only covering parts of the wrong
contexts. The sanity check for the context is covered by
CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP and other debug facilities already.
