Subject: [PATCH] clocksource/i8253: Use raw_spinlock_irqsave() in
clockevent_i8253_disable()
On x86 during boot, clockevent_i8253_disable() can be invoked via
x86_late_time_init -> hpet_time_init() -> pit_timer_init() which happens
with enabled interrupts.
If some of the old i8253 hardware is actually used then lockdep will notice
that i8253_lock is used in hard interrupt context. This causes lockdep to
complain because it observed the lock being acquired with interrupts
enabled and in hard interrupt context.
Make clockevent_i8253_disable() acquire the lock with
raw_spinlock_irqsave() to cure this.
[ tglx: Massage change log and use guard() ]
Fixes: c8c4076723dac ("x86/timer: Skip PIT initialization on modern chipsets")
