Subject: [PATCH 2/2] rt/threadirqs: remove pointless irq disabling on irq thread handlers
Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2009 23:33:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4994ae21.170e660a.5891.430d@mx.google.com> (raw)

The handlers called by the irq thread lock the desc->lock by
using spin_lock_irq.
But at this stage, the irqs are already disabled at the end
of both handle_IRQ_event() processing and cond_resched_hardirq_context().

A single spin_lock is sufficient.
