Subject[PATCH 0/2] locking, tracing: Fix incorrect use of arch_spin_lock()
Date
It is found that running the LTP read_all_proc test may cause the
following warning to show up:

So tracing_saved_cmdlines_size_read() does call arch_spin_lock() with
preemption enabled. Looking at other arch_spin_lock() call sites in
kernel/trace/trace.c, there are several others that may have the same
problem. Other arch_spin_lock() callers under kernel look OK as
irqs has been disabled before calling arch_spin_lock().

Add a do_arch_spin_lock() helper that disables preemption and make
kernel/trace/trace.c use it if it is not obvious that either preemption
or interrupt has been disabled.

Waiman Long (2):
locking: Provide a low overhead do_arch_spin_lock() API
tracing: Use proper do_arch_spin_lock() API
