Subject: [PATCH v3 14/14] wifi: ath9k: Remove redundant rcu_read_lock/unlock() in spin_lock
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2025 12:47:35 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250916044735.2316171-15-dolinux.peng@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250916044735.2316171-1-dolinux.peng@gmail.com>
From: pengdonglin <pengdonglin@xiaomi.com>
Since commit a8bb74acd8efe ("rcu: Consolidate RCU-sched update-side function definitions")
there is no difference between rcu_read_lock(), rcu_read_lock_bh() and
rcu_read_lock_sched() in terms of RCU read section and the relevant grace
period. That means that spin_lock(), which implies rcu_read_lock_sched(),
also implies rcu_read_lock().
There is no need no explicitly start a RCU read section if one has already
been started implicitly by spin_lock().
Simplify the code and remove the inner rcu_read_lock() invocation.
