[PATCH v3 rcu 07/11] arch/loongarch: Add ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS Kconfig option

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Wed Oct 19 2022 - 18:59:37 EST


The loongarch architecture uses the atomic read-modify-write amadd
instruction to implement this_cpu_add(), which is NMI safe. This means
that the old and more-efficient srcu_read_lock() may be used in NMI
context, without the need for srcu_read_lock_nmisafe(). Therefore, add
the new Kconfig option ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS to arch/x86/Kconfig,
which will cause NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE to be deselected, thus preserving
the current srcu_read_lock() behavior.
