The following commit has been merged into the core/rcu branch of tip: Commit-ID: 9ced454807191e44ef093aeeee68194be9ce3a1a Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/9ced454807191e44ef093aeeee68194be9ce3a1a Author: Jules Irenge <jbi.octave@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Mon, 20 Jan 2020 22:42:15 Committer: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Thu, 20 Feb 2020 15:58:23 -08:00 rcu: Add missing annotation for rcu_nocb_bypass_lock() Sparse reports warning at rcu_nocb_bypass_lock() |warning: context imbalance in rcu_nocb_bypass_lock() - wrong count at exit To fix this, this commit adds an __acquires(&rdp->nocb_bypass_lock). Given that rcu_nocb_bypass_lock() does actually call raw_spin_lock() when raw_spin_trylock() fails, this not only fixes the warning but also improves on the readability of the code.
