From: Rob Clark <robdclark@xxxxxxxxxxxx> This will make it easier to catch places doing allocations that can trigger reclaim under devfreq->lock. Because devfreq->lock is held over various devfreq_dev_profile callbacks, there might be some fallout if those callbacks do allocations that can trigger reclaim, but I've looked through the various callback implementations and don't see anything obvious. If it does trigger any lockdep splats, those should be fixed.
