Subject: [PATCH RT 4/6] rt/locking: Reenable migration accross schedule

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

We currently disable migration across lock acquisition. That includes the part
where we block on the lock and schedule out. We cannot disable migration after
taking the lock as that would cause a possible lock inversion.

But we can be smart and enable migration when we block and schedule out. That
allows the scheduler to place the task freely at least if this is the first
migrate disable level. For nested locking this does not help at all.
