If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Abhinav Singh [ Upstream commit 5f35a624c1e30b5bae5023b3c256e94e0ad4f806 ] Fix a sparse warning with this message "warning:dereference of noderef expression". In this context it means we are dereferencing a __rcu tagged pointer directly. We should not be directly dereferencing a rcu pointer. To get a normal (non __rcu tagged pointer) from a __rcu tagged pointer we are using the function unrcu_pointer(...). The non __rcu tagged pointer then can be dereferenced just like a normal pointer. I tested with qemu with this command qemu-system-x86_64 \ -m 2G \ -smp 2 \ -kernel bzImage \ -append "console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sda earlyprintk=serial net.ifnames=0" \ -drive file=bullseye.img,format=raw \ -net user,host=10.0.2.10,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:10021-:22 \ -net nic,model=e1000 \ -enable-kvm \ -nographic \ -pidfile vm.pid \ 2>&1 | tee vm.log with lockdep enabled.
