From 3120438ad68601f341e61e7cb1323b0e1a6ca367 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 22 Feb 2010 17:04:48 -0800 Subject: rcu: Disable lockdep checking in RCU list-traversal primitives The theory is that use of bare rcu_dereference() is more prone to error than use of the RCU list-traversal primitives. Therefore, disable lockdep RCU read-side critical-section checking in these primitives for the time being. Once all of the rcu_dereference() uses have been dealt with, it may be time to re-enable lockdep checking for the RCU list-traversal primitives. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
