    nd_btt: Make BTT lanes preemptible · 36c75ce3
    Tomas Glozar authored
    nd_region_acquire_lane uses get_cpu, which disables preemption. This is
    an issue on PREEMPT_RT kernels, since btt_write_pg and also
    nd_region_acquire_lane itself take a spin lock, resulting in BUG:
    sleeping function called from invalid context.
    
    Fix the issue by replacing get_cpu with smp_process_id and
    migrate_disable when needed. This makes BTT operations preemptible, thus
    permitting the use of spin_lock.
    
    BUG example occurring when running ndctl tests on PREEMPT_RT kernel:
    
    BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at
    kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48
    in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 4903, name:
    libndctl

    Preemption disabled at:
