This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled opp: Reduce the size of critical section in _opp_table_kref_release() to the 5.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: opp-reduce-the-size-of-critical-section-in-_opp_tabl.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 65b09615b85c95f3f0e620c8ecd2f5a95ba97991 Author: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Oct 22 12:26:08 2020 +0530 opp: Reduce the size of critical section in _opp_table_kref_release() [ Upstream commit e0df59de670b48a923246fae1f972317b84b2764 ] There is a lot of stuff here which can be done outside of the big opp_table_lock, do that. This helps avoiding few circular dependency lockdeps around debugfs and interconnects.
