From: Jules Irenge <jbi.octave@xxxxxxxxx> Sparse reports a warning at rcu_print_task_stall(): "warning: context imbalance in rcu_print_task_stall - unexpected unlock" The root cause is a missing annotation on rcu_print_task_stall(). This commit therefore adds the missing __releases(rnp->lock) annotation. Signed-off-by: Jules Irenge <jbi.octave@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
