Good catch, Stephen! Lihao, would you please get me you Signed-off-by? The patch is below. Thanx, Paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------ commit d7e182c9c32480c1f579dd888ac50e88bfb39596 Author: Liang Lihao <lianglihao@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Nov 22 19:00:55 2017 +0000 rcu: Remove unnecessary spinlock in rcu_boot_init_percpu_data() Since rcu_boot_init_percpu_data() is only called at boot time, there is no data race and spinlock is not needed.
