Hi Thomas,
I looked at this and don't see the need for the preempt_disable there
at the moment. I believe it was there simply to match the BPF caller
case where it was preempt_disable at the time and now is migrate
disable. From the BPF side we don't want the migrate, but from the
syscall interface it should be OK.
Can you submit without RFC tag I think this should be OK.
Thanks,
John
