Subject: [PATCH] arm64: abort counter_read_on_cpu() when irqs_disabled()
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2020 15:53:28 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201113155328.4194-1-ionela.voinescu@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201106125334.21570-1-ionela.voinescu@arm.com>

Given that smp_call_function_single() can deadlock when interrupts are
disabled, abort the SMP call if irqs_disabled(). This scenario is
currently not possible given the function's uses, but safeguard this for
potential future uses.
