[PATCH 1/4] mm: remove irqsave/restore locking from contexts with irqs enabled

From: Johannes Weiner
Date: Mon Jun 14 2021 - 17:20:21 EST


The page cache deletion paths all have interrupts enabled, so no need
to use irqsafe/irqrestore locking variants.

They used to have irqs disabled by the memcg lock added in commit
c4843a7593a9 ("memcg: add per cgroup dirty page accounting"), but that
has since been replaced by memcg taking the page lock instead, commit
0a31bc97c80c ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge AP").
