    workqueue: Use normal rcu · 24acfb71
    Thomas Gleixner authored
    There is no need for sched_rcu. The undocumented reason why sched_rcu
    is used is to avoid a few explicit rcu_read_lock()/unlock() pairs by
    the fact that sched_rcu reader side critical sections are also protected
    by preempt or irq disabled regions.
    
    Replace rcu_read_lock_sched with rcu_read_lock and acquire the RCU lock
    where it is not yet explicit acquired. Replace local_irq_disable() with
    rcu_read_lock(). Update asserts.
