Thomas Gleixner 68655462f8 sched/rt: Provide migrate_disable/enable() inlines
[ Upstream commit 66630058e56b26b3a9cf2625e250a8c592dd0207 ]

Code which solely needs to prevent migration of a task uses
preempt_disable()/enable() pairs. This is the only reliable way to do so
as setting the task affinity to a single CPU can be undone by a
setaffinity operation from a different task/process.

RT provides a seperate migrate_disable/enable() mechanism which does not
disable preemption to achieve the semantic requirements of a (almost) fully
preemptible kernel.

As it is unclear from looking at a given code path whether the intention is
to disable preemption or migration, introduce migrate_disable/enable()
inline functions which can be used to annotate code which merely needs to
disable migration. Map them to preempt_disable/enable() for now. The RT
substitution will be provided later.

Code which is annotated that way documents that it has no requirement to
protect against reentrancy of a preempting task. Either this is not
required at all or the call sites are already serialized by other means.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
