From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> ARCH_NO_PREEMPT disables the selection of CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY and CONFIG_PREEMPT, but architectures which set this config option still support preempt count for hard and softirq accounting. There is absolutely no reason to prevent lockdep from using the preempt counter nor is there a reason to prevent the enablement of CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP on such architectures. Remove the dependencies. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
