From 94cff94634e506a4a44684bee1875d2dbf782722 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior bigeasy@linutronix.de Date: Fri, 4 Apr 2025 15:31:16 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] clocksource/i8253: Use raw_spinlock_irqsave() in clockevent_i8253_disable()
On x86 during boot, clockevent_i8253_disable() can be invoked via x86_late_time_init -> hpet_time_init() -> pit_timer_init() which happens with enabled interrupts.
If some of the old i8253 hardware is actually used then lockdep will notice that i8253_lock is used in hard interrupt context. This causes lockdep to complain because it observed the lock being acquired with interrupts enabled and in hard interrupt context.
Make clockevent_i8253_disable() acquire the lock with raw_spinlock_irqsave() to cure this.
[ tglx: Massage change log and use guard() ]
