[PATCH 4.4 095/192] [PATCH 099/135] Drivers: hv: vmbus: dont manipulate with clocksources on crash

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit 3ccb4fd8f492f99aece21acc1bd6142275f26236 ]

clocksource_change_rating() involves mutex usage and can't be called
in interrupt context. It also makes sense to avoid doing redundant work
on crash.
