[PATCH v4 2/2] clocksource: Use migrate_disable() to avoid calling get_random_u32() in atomic context

[Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com>]

The following bug report happened with a PREEMPT_RT kernel.

[   30.957705] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48
[   30.957711] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 2012, name: kwatchdog
[   30.962673] preempt_count: 1, expected: 0
[   30.962676] RCU nest depth: 0, expected: 0

It is due to the fact that clocksource_verify_choose_cpus() is invoked
with preemption disabled.  This function invokes get_random_u32()
to obtain random numbers for choosing CPUs.  The batched_entropy_32
local lock and/or the base_crng.lock spinlock in driver/char/random.c
will be acquired during the call. In PREEMPT_RT kernel, they are both
sleeping locks and so cannot be acquired in atomic context.

Fix this problem by using migrate_disable() to allow
smp_processor_id() to be reliably used without introducing atomic
context. The preempt_disable() function is then called after
clocksource_verify_choose_cpus() but before the clocksource measurement
is being run to avoid introducing unexpected latency.

Fixes: 7560c02bdffb ("clocksource: Check per-CPU clock synchronization when marked unstable")
