Julien Grall 68b2c8c1e4 hrtimer: Don't take expiry_lock when timer is currently migrated
migration_base is used as a placeholder when an hrtimer is migrated to a
different CPU. In the case that hrtimer_cancel_wait_running() hits a timer
which is currently migrated it would pointlessly acquire the expiry lock of
the migration base, which is even not initialized.

Surely it could be initialized, but there is absolutely no point in
acquiring this lock because the timer is guaranteed not to run it's
callback for which the caller waits to finish on that base. So it would
just do the inc/lock/dec/unlock dance for nothing.

As the base switch is short and non-preemptible, there is no issue when the
wait function returns immediately.

The timer base and base->cpu_base cannot be NULL in the code path which is
invoking that, so just replace those checks with a check whether base is
migration base.

[ tglx: Updated from RT patch. Massaged changelog. Added comment. ]

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.
