[PATCH RT 4/5] timers: Dont block on ->expiry_lock for TIMER_IRQSAFE

[Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>]

5.4.74-rt42-rc2 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

PREEMPT_RT does not spin and wait until a running timer completes its
callback but instead it blocks on a sleeping lock to prevent a deadlock.

This blocking can not be done for workqueue's IRQ_SAFE timer which will
be canceled in an IRQ-off region. It has to happen to in IRQ-off region
because changing the PENDING bit and clearing the timer must not be
interrupted to avoid a busy-loop.

The callback invocation of IRQSAFE timer is not preempted on PREEMPT_RT
so there is no need to synchronize on timer_base::expiry_lock.

Don't acquire the timer_base::expiry_lock for TIMER_IRQSAFE flagged
timer.
Add a lockdep annotation to ensure that this function is always invoked
in preemptible context on PREEMPT_RT.
