The warning is claiming that this srcu_struct was passed to srcu_read_lock() at some point and is now being passed to srcu_read_lock_nmisafe(). In other words, you have an srcu_read_lock() or srcu_read_unlock() somewhere that needs to instead be srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() or srcu_read_unlock_nmisafe(). Thanx, Paul
