Subject: [PATCH 2/4] powerpc/64: do not trace irqs-off at interrupt return to soft-disabled context
Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2017 02:00:50 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171116160052.18672-3-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171116160052.18672-1-npiggin@gmail.com>

When an interrupt is returning to a soft-disabled context (which can
happen for non-maskable interrupts or synchronous interrupts), it goes
through the motions of soft-disabling again, including calling
TRACE_DISABLE_INTS (i.e., trace_hardirqs_off()).

This is not necessary, because we must already be soft-disabled in the
interrupt context, it also may be causing crashes in the irq tracing
code to re-enter as an nmi. Replace it with a warning to ensure that
soft-interrupts are still disabled.
