[PATCH 5.6 64/71] rcu: Dont acquire lock in NMI handler in rcu_nmi_enter_common()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit bf37da98c51825c90432d340e135cced37a7460d upstream.

The rcu_nmi_enter_common() function can be invoked both in interrupt
and NMI handlers.  If it is invoked from process context (as opposed
to userspace or idle context) on a nohz_full CPU, it might acquire the
CPU's leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock.  Because this lock is held only
with interrupts disabled, this is safe from an interrupt handler, but
doing so from an NMI handler can result in self-deadlock.

This commit therefore adds "irq" to the "if" condition so as to only
acquire the ->lock from irq handlers or process context, never from
an NMI handler.
