[PATCH 4/4] sched: Generalize sleep inside spinlock detection

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Fri Jun 10 2011 - 09:30:45 EST


The sleeping inside spinlock detection is actually used
for more general sleeping inside atomic sections
debugging: preemption disabled, rcu read side critical
sections, interrupts, interrupt disabled, etc...

Change the name of the config and its help section to
reflect its more general role.
