From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: cdall@kernel.org (Christoffer Dall) Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2017 21:04:59 +0100 Subject: [PATCH v6 1/8] KVM: arm/arm64: Remove redundant preemptible checks In-Reply-To: <20171204200506.3224-1-cdall@kernel.org> References: <20171204200506.3224-1-cdall@kernel.org> Message-ID: <20171204200506.3224-2-cdall@kernel.org> To: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org List-Id: linux-arm-kernel.lists.infradead.org From: Christoffer Dall The __this_cpu_read() and __this_cpu_write() functions already implement checks for the required preemption levels when using CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT which gives you nice error messages and such. Therefore there is no need to explicitly check this using a BUG_ON() in the code (which we don't do for other uses of per cpu variables either).
