Subject: [PATCH] sched_clock: Disable seqlock lockdep usage in sched_clock
Date: Thu,  2 Jan 2014 13:54:46 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1388699686-4834-1-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <52C5DB5B.9050604@linaro.org>

Unforunately the seqlock lockdep enablmenet can't be used
in sched_clock, since the lockdep infrastructure eventually
calls into sched_clock, which causes a deadlock.

Thus, this patch adds _no_lockdep() seqlock methods for the
writer side, and changes all generic sched_clock usage to use
the _no_lockdep methods.

This solves the issue I was able to reproduce, but it would
be good to get Krzysztof to confirm it solves his problem.
