[PATCH 4.6 09/96] memcg: mem_cgroup_migrate() may be called with irq disabled

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d93c4130a7d049b234b5d5a15808eaf5406f2789 upstream.

mem_cgroup_migrate() uses local_irq_disable/enable() but can be called
with irq disabled from migrate_page_copy(). This ends up enabling irq
while holding a irq context lock triggering the following lockdep
warning. Fix it by using irq_save/restore instead.
