    trace: disable preemption before taking raw spinlocks · 5b6045a9
    Heiko Carstens authored
    s390 code uses smp_processor_id() in __raw_spin_lock() code which
    reveals that a (raw) spinlock is taken without preemption disabled.
    This can potentially deadlock.
    
    To fix this explicitly disable and enable preemption.
    
    BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: cat/2278
