From 59fc9fa59a8a6eaa1456e7a3035b10152a9e6d94 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Luis Claudio R. Goncalves" Date: Thu, 8 Jun 2023 19:47:25 -0300 Subject: [PATCH 319/323] Revert "mm/page_alloc: fix potential deadlock on zonelist_update_seqseqlock" Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.10/older/patches-5.10.204-rt100.tar.xz This reverts commit a992c387b41186ab968fd176ca26b432b05c53ec. The support for deferred printing was removed in v5.10-rc1-rt1 by commit 9153e3c5cb0c9 ("printk: remove deferred printing") because: Since printing occurs either atomically or from the printing kthread, there is no need for any deferring or tracking possible recursion paths. Remove all printk context tracking. Also, disabling interrupts in __build_all_zonelists() should produce warnings once that code path is hit.
