Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH] rt/aio: fix rcu garbage collection might_sleep()
 splat

Hi, rt-people

I don't think it is the correct direction.
Softirq (including local_bh_disable()) in RT kernel should be preemptible.

Fixing these problems via converting spinlock_t to raw_spinlock_t will
result that all spinlock_t used in RCU-callbacks are converted which
means almost the spinlock_t in kernel are converted.

Sudden and superficial thought.
Thanks
Lai
