[PATCH 0/2] Reinstate irq alloc/dealloc locking patch

[PATCH 0/2] Reinstate irq alloc/dealloc locking patch

[Boris Ostrovsky]

Original version of that patch (commit a89941816726) had to be reverted
due to Xen allocating irqs in its cpu_up ops.

The first patch moves allocations into hotplug notifiers and the second
one restores the original patch (with minor adjustments to new hotplug
framework)

Boris Ostrovsky (2):
  xen/x86: Move irq allocation from Xen smp_op.cpu_up()
  hotplug: Prevent alloc/free of irq descriptors during cpu up/down
    (again)

[PATCH 1/2] xen/x86: Move irq allocation from Xen smp_op.cpu_up()

[Boris Ostrovsky]

Commit ce0d3c0a6fb1 ("genirq: Revert sparse irq locking around
__cpu_up() and move it to x86 for now") reverted irq locking
introduced by commit a89941816726 ("hotplug: Prevent alloc/free
of irq descriptors during cpu up/down") because of Xen allocating
irqs in both of its cpu_up ops.

We can move those allocations into CPU notifiers so that original
patch can be reinstated.

I don't think this is needed: we initialize lock in CPU_ONLINE notifier 
which can only be called after CPU_UP_CANCELED would have run (in which 
case we'll never do CPU_ONLINE)

[PATCH 2/2] hotplug: Prevent alloc/free of irq descriptors during cpu up/down (again)

[Boris Ostrovsky]

Now that Xen no longer allocates irqs in _cpu_up() we can restore
commit a89941816726 ("hotplug: Prevent alloc/free of irq descriptors
during cpu up/down")
