[PATCH RT 2/5] KVM: lapic: mark LAPIC timer handler as irqsafe

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu May 14 2015 - 10:04:11 EST


3.10.75-rt81-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@xxxxxxxxxx>

Since lapic timer handler only wakes up a simple waitqueue,
it can be executed from hardirq context.

Also handle the case where hrtimer_start_expires fails due to -ETIME,
by injecting the interrupt to the guest immediately.

Reduces average cyclictest latency by 3us.
