commit 8afb1d2c12163f77777f84616a8e9444d0050ebe upstream.
Commit 40f70c03e33a ("serial: sh-sci: add locking to console write function to avoid SMP lockup") copied the strategy to avoid locking problems in conjuncture with the console from the UART8250 driver. Instead using directly spin_{try}lock_irqsave(), local_irq_save() followed by spin_{try}lock() was used. While this is correct on mainline, for -rt it is a problem. spin_{try}lock() will check if it is running in a valid context. Since the local_irq_save() has already been executed, the context has changed and spin_{try}lock() will complain. The reason why spin_{try}lock() complains is that on -rt the spin locks are turned into mutexes and therefore can sleep. Sleeping with interrupts disabled is not valid.
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at /home/wagi/work/rt/v4.4-cip-rt/kernel/locking/rtmutex.c:995 in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 128, pid: 778, name: irq/76-eth0 CPU: 0 PID: 778 Comm: irq/76-eth0 Not tainted 4.4.126-test-cip22-rt14-00403-gcd03665c8318 #12 Hardware name: Generic RZ/G1 (Flattened Device Tree) Backtrace: [<c00140a0>] (dump_backtrace) from [<c001424c>] (show_stack+0x18/0x1c) r7:c06b01f0 r6:60010193 r5:00000000 r4:c06b01f0 [<c0014234>] (show_stack) from [<c01d3c94>] (dump_stack+0x78/0x94) [<c01d3c1c>] (dump_stack) from [<c004c134>] (___might_sleep+0x134/0x194) r7:60010113 r6:c06d3559 r5:00000000 r4:ffffe000 [<c004c000>] (___might_sleep) from [<c04ded60>] (rt_spin_lock+0x20/0x74) r5:c06f4d60 r4:c06f4d60 [<c04ded40>] (rt_spin_lock) from [<c02577e4>] (serial_console_write+0x100/0x118) r5:c06f4d60 r4:c06f4d60 [<c02576e4>] (serial_console_write) from [<c0061060>] (call_console_drivers.constprop.15+0x10c/0x124) r10:c06d2894 r9:c04e18b0 r8:00000028 r7:00000000 r6:c06d3559 r5:c06d2798 r4:c06b9914 r3:c02576e4 [<c0060f54>] (call_console_drivers.constprop.15) from [<c0062984>] (console_unlock+0x32c/0x430) r10:c06d30d8 r9:00000028 r8:c06dd518 r7:00000005 r6:00000000 r5:c06d2798 r4:c06d2798 r3:00000028 [<c0062658>] (console_unlock) from [<c0062e1c>] (vprintk_emit+0x394/0x4f0) r10:c06d2798 r9:c06d30ee r8:00000006 r7:00000005 r6:c06a78fc r5:00000027 r4:00000003 [<c0062a88>] (vprintk_emit) from [<c0062fa0>] (vprintk+0x28/0x30) r10:c060bd46 r9:00001000 r8:c06b9a90 r7:c06b9a90 r6:c06b994c r5:c06b9a3c r4:c0062fa8 [<c0062f78>] (vprintk) from [<c0062fb8>] (vprintk_default+0x10/0x14) [<c0062fa8>] (vprintk_default) from [<c009cd30>] (printk+0x78/0x84) [<c009ccbc>] (printk) from [<c025afdc>] (credit_entropy_bits+0x17c/0x2cc) r3:00000001 r2:decade60 r1:c061a5ee r0:c061a523 r4:00000006 [<c025ae60>] (credit_entropy_bits) from [<c025bf74>] (add_interrupt_randomness+0x160/0x178) r10:466e7196 r9:1f536000 r8:fffeef74 r7:00000000 r6:c06b9a60 r5:c06b9a3c r4:dfbcf680 [<c025be14>] (add_interrupt_randomness) from [<c006536c>] (irq_thread+0x1e8/0x248) r10:c006537c r9:c06cdf21 r8:c0064fcc r7:df791c24 r6:df791c00 r5:ffffe000 r4:df525180 [<c0065184>] (irq_thread) from [<c003fba4>] (kthread+0x108/0x11c) r10:00000000 r9:00000000 r8:c0065184 r7:df791c00 r6:00000000 r5:df791d00 r4:decac000 [<c003fa9c>] (kthread) from [<c00101b8>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x3c) r8:00000000 r7:00000000 r6:00000000 r5:c003fa9c r4:df791d00
