Subject: [PATCH] scsi: storvsc: Fix scheduling while atomic on PREEMPT_RT
From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@...mens.com>
This resolves the follow splat and lock-up when running with PREEMPT_RT
enabled on Hyper-V:

get_cpu() disables preemption while the spinlock hv_ringbuffer_write is
using is converted to an rt-mutex under PREEMPT_RT.

This is likely just the tip of an iceberg, see specifically [1], but if
you never start addressing it, it will continue to crash ships, even if
those are only on test cruises (we are fully aware that Hyper-V provides
no RT guarantees for guests). A pragmatic alternative to that would be a
simple
config HYPERV
depends on !PREEMPT_RT
Please share your thoughts if this fix is worth it, or if we should
better stop looking at the next splats that show up after it. We are
currently considering to thread some of the hv platform IRQs under
PREEMPT_RT as potential next step.
TIA!
