+Subject: [PATCH 350/351] timers: Don't block on ->expiry_lock for
+ TIMER_IRQSAFE timers
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git/commit?id=deb2c700cef1bff119c5b7fe75b105e1918ad70f
+
+Upstream commit c725dafc95f1b37027840aaeaa8b7e4e9cd20516
+
+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 livelock in
+the case that the task waiting for the callback completion preempted the
+callback.
+
+This cannot be done for timers flagged with TIMER_IRQSAFE. These timers can
+be canceled from an interrupt disabled context even on RT kernels.
+
+The expiry callback of such timers is invoked with interrupts disabled so
+there is no need to use the expiry lock mechanism because obviously the
+callback cannot be preempted even on RT kernels.
+
+Do not use the timer_base::expiry_lock mechanism when waiting for a running
+callback to complete if the timer is flagged with TIMER_IRQSAFE.
+
+Also add a lockdep assertion for RT kernels to validate that the expiry
+lock mechanism is always invoked in preemptible context.
+
+[ bigeasy: Dropping that lockdep_assert_preemption_enabled() check in
+ backport ]
