From 896f97ea95c1d29c0520ee0766b66b7f64cb967c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Decotigny Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2013 14:31:36 -0800 Subject: lib: cpu_rmap: avoid flushing all workqueues In some cases, free_irq_cpu_rmap() is called while holding a lock (eg rtnl). This can lead to deadlocks, because it invokes flush_scheduled_work() which ends up waiting for whole system workqueue to flush, but some pending works might try to acquire the lock we are already holding. This commit uses reference-counting to replace irq_run_affinity_notifiers(). It also removes irq_run_affinity_notifiers() altogether.
