One question I have is whether the sequence spin_lock_irqsave(&unaccepted_memory_lock, flags); ... spin_unlock(&unaccepted_memory_lock); arch_accept_memory(phys_start, phys_end); spin_lock(&unaccepted_memory_lock); ... spin_unlock_irqrestore(&unaccepted_memory_lock, flags); is considered sound and is supported by all architectures?
