Okay.
How much difference does it make between completing in-softirq vs
in-IPI? I'm asking because acquiring a spinlock_t in an IPI shouldn't be
done (as per Documentation/locking/locktypes.rst). We don't have
anything in lockdep that will complain here on !RT and we the above we
avoid the case on RT.
