That shouldn't be the case. The splats come from this scenario:

CPU0 	       	      	    CPU1
rtmutex_lock(rcu)		    
  raw_spin_lock(&rcu->lock)
			    rcu_read_lock()
Interrupt		    spin_lock_irq(some->lock);
			    rcu_read_unlock()
			      rcu_read_unlock_special()
			        rtmutex_unlock(rcu)
				  raw_spin_lock(&rcu->lock)
  spin_lock(some->lock)

Now we dead locked.

We can solve that issue by taking rtmutex->wait_lock with irqsave. So the
above becomes:

CPU0				CPU1
rtmutex_lock(rcu)		    
  raw_spin_lock_irq(&rcu->lock)
				rcu_read_lock()
		    	    	spin_lock_irq(some->lock);
			    	rcu_read_unlock()
				  rcu_read_unlock_special()
			          rtmutex_unlock(rcu)
				    raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&rcu->lock, flags)
  raw_spin_unlock_irq(&rcu->lock)
Interrupt			    ...
  spin_lock(some->lock)		    raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&rcu->lock, flags)
				...
		    	    	spin_unlock_irq(some->lock);
				
Untested patch below.

Thanks,
