Sounds to me that there's a "spin_lock_irq*" somewhere in the path, because
from what I can see, there's not much difference with the IRQ code between
5.10.41 and 5.10.41-rt42. But if you are seeing it only with PREEMPT_RT
set, that tells me that without PREEMPT_RT, interrupts are disabled at that
point, but not with PREEMPT_RT. The only thing I can think of that would do
that is a spin_lock_irq*() taken (not a raw_spin_lock_irq*()).
